Coach Bryan Harsin and his staff hit the ground running with recruiting and have been working at it ever since they took over the program from Gus Malzahn. Having already been looking ahead to the class of 2022, the Auburn football program attempted to add another name to the roster and extended an offer to Auburn native Powell Gordon.
Gordon is a rising senior at local Auburn High School, and according to Auburn Undercover was a standout linebacker for the Tigers last season:
Gordon, listed at 6-feet-3, 215-pounds, helped lead Auburn High to a Class 7A state runner-up finish in 2020.
