The Auburn Tigers are rebuilding along the offensive line. There will be some interesting players stepping into key positions in 2019.
For 2020, though, the Tigers are adding a big piece from the JUCO ranks. On Monday, the top JUCO offensive tackle announced his commitment to Auburn.
As you can see below, 3-star OT Kilian Zierer — a native of Germany — tweeted that he’d be heading to Auburn next fall:

Per the 247Sports rankings, Zierer is the No. 1 JUCO offensive tackle in the class of 2020 and the No. 2 overall JUCO prospect from Germany.
Auburn now has 14 players in its 2020 recruiting class. Prior to Zierer’s commitment, that class ranked No. 14 in the country and No. 6 in the SEC, per 247Sports.
