Former 4-Star QB Cord Sandberg Commits to Auburn After 6 Years with Phillies

The Auburn Tigers landed a late addition to their 2018 recruiting class Monday.

Cord Sandberg, who was a 4-star prospect and the No. 8 dual-threat quarterback in the 2013 class, per 247Sports’ composite rankings, announced his intentions to join the SEC program on Twitter:

Cord Sandberg

Absolutely humbled to have been given the opportunity to pursue a childhood dream of mine. After some visits and a lot of prayer I’m excited to announce I’m officially an Auburn Tiger! Fired up and ready to get to work! #WarEagle ud83eudd85 @AuburnFootball https://t.co/ot49iTRW9c

Keith Niebuhr of 247Sports noted Sandberg was a member of the Philadelphia Phillies organization for six years, which delayed his entry into college football.
