Austin Ausberry, a 4-star cornerback out of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, made his college announcement live on CBS Sports HQ on Monday and pledged to play for the Auburn Tigers.
Ausberry, a 6-foot and 195-pounder who played at University Lab in high school, is rated the No. 22 cornerback in this class, and the No. 13 player out of the state of Louisiana, according to the 247Sports Composite. He chose Auburn over finalists Alabama, Florida, LSU, Notre Dame and Michigan. Ausberry is Auburns’ 14th, and highest-rated commit, of the class.
Although his father played at LSU, Ausberry said on CBS Sports HQ that his dad said he had to make his own decision.
“It was just a gut feeling,” he said. “I feel like that was the right feel for me and my family. … Their plan, when I made the decision, I felt right and slept on it for a few days and felt like it was the right decision for me.”
