No time wasted: Auburn issues offer to recent Tennessee decommitment
Last Monday, JUCO DB Roterius Torrence committed to Tennessee. On Tuesday afternoon, he decommitted.
Now, it seems another SEC school is wasting no time getting in on the recruitment for the former Hutchinson Community College standout.
As you can see below, Torrence took to Twitter shortly after his decommitment from Tennessee to announce that he’d received a scholarship offer from Auburn:

Auburn is working to add some depth to its secondary, and as a 2021 player, Torrence could step in and contribute this fall.
Will he end up at Auburn soon? Or, will he wait and receive even more offers to consider? The timing of this offer makes it seem like the Tigers are the frontrunners for his services.
If Auburn is looking to add depth, I would imagine this guy is looking for a starting situation. I would expect he will get more offers.
An opportunist player as many are. But his word for committing is burned and means absolutely nothing.
Commitment’s by recruits don’t mean jack until signing day but that’s nothing new, players have been ‘flipping’, decommitting whatever for many years now.
