Auburn Makes Final Two for Elite 4-Star OL Reed Ramsier

The Auburn Tigers are once again in the mix for one of the nation's top recruits. 

It was announced on Thursday that four-star offensive lineman Reed Ramsier has pushed his commitment decision to two teams after canceling his official visit to the Clemson Tigers for this upcoming weekend. Ramsier is now down to the Auburn Tigers and the Texas Longhorns. 

According to Rivals, the 6'5, 290-pound interior offensive lineman is seen as the second-best IOL in the state of Florida. Composite industry rankings have him at an 89.85 score, seen as a high four-star, with one who could potentially add the fifth one this upcoming season. 

Ramsier is currently playing high school ball at First Academy in Orlando, Florida. 

The offensive lineman has made two unofficial visits to Auburn so far this year, one in February and one in late March. He is scheduled to take his official visit on June 12. Alex Golesh and the rest of his coaching staff will have to make a huge impression on Ramsier, as just one week later, he will take his official visit to the Texas Longhorns on June 19. 

Ramsier and Auburn's Offensive line coach, Tyler Hudanick (Coach Hoodie), have had a relationship dating back to when the coaching staff was at USF. The Orlando, Florida native and Coach Hoodie have stayed in contact and have helped surge his recruitment towards the Auburn Tigers, keeping them in the final two.

If the first academy lineman is added to Auburn's recruitment class, it will be the fourth offensive lineman in the 2027 cycle, and the second interior offensive lineman as well. He will join a class of recently committed Layton Von Brandt, Rance Brown, and Jaylon Moore. 

The next few weekends are massive for Golesh and him building his first recruiting class on the Plains. If he finds a way to be successful and get multiple recruiting wins over other big programs, the Tigers can continue. The Tigers might find themselves in a really great spot for years to come.
