The 6-foot-2, 217-pound Ausbon of IMG Academy is one of the nation’s most sought after prospects with scholarship offers from Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Baylor, Miami, Cal, Nebraska and Oklahoma among others. Ausbon is currently rated as a four-star recruit, the No. 41 overall prospect and the No. 8 receiver prospect in the nation, according to 247Sports.
Auburn looks to have represented themselves well after hosting Ausbon for a visit last weekend during their Big Cat Weekend, while Texas A&M looks to show him arguably the nation’s best facilities this weekend as he plans to visit College Station.
An interesting aspect of Ausbon’s recruitment is the fact he recently decommitted from Baylor in the wake of Art Briles’ firing. Joining the talented receiver in that regard is his IMG Academy teammate and top dual-threat quarterback prospect Kellen Mond – who also recently decommitted from Baylor. Mond is also being heavily recruited by both Auburn and Texas A&M and recently stated the Tigers have a slight edge in his recruitment.
While he plays in Florida for IMG, Ausbon is originally from Bellaire, Texas.
