Area Football Star Commits To Auburn

August 3, 2011

The national champion Auburn Tigers landed a star local player Tuesday.

The Tigers received a verbal commitment from defensive lineman Tyler Nero of Escambia County High School in Atmore. The 6-foot-1, 285 pound Nero had been recruited by Alabama, Arkansas, Arkansas State, Florida, Florida State, Kentucky and South Alabama before deciding to head to the Plains.

Nero told the Mobile-Press Register that he felt like “he fit in better at Auburn”.

Another Escambia County High Blue Devil also made a college commitment recently — senior defensive lineman Dalvin Craft is headed to Southern Miss.
