Auburn received a pleasant surprise Sunday morning when five-star RB Najee Harris showed up for an unannounced visit according to a report by 247Sports’ Keith Niebuhr.

The Antioch (Calif.) product is currently pledged to Alabama, but that’s not slowing down an AU recruiting effort led by Tigers offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee, who visited Harris recently.

Harris, who committed to the Crimson Tide in April 2015, was in Atlanta for the Rivals Five-Star Challenge. He’s expected to spend a few hours on The Plains before returning to the airport this afternoon per Niebuhr.
