Four-star quarterback Deuce Knight, ESPN's No. 2 dual-threat passer in the 2025 cycle, flipped his pledge from Notre Dame to Auburn Wednesday night, bolstering Hugh Freeze's pursuit of the nation's top class while marking another blow to the Irish's recruiting efforts in 2025.
Knight, the 6-foot-5, 205-pound quarterback from Lucedale, Mississippi, is ESPN's No. 76 prospect in the 2025 class and lands with the Tigers at the end of a long-rumored courtship. Initially committed to Notre Dame since Sept. 2023, Knight is now the 5th-highest rated member of Auburn's 2025 class.
