McClain is only rated between two and three stars at 247Sports, but he also held offers from Mississippi State, Minnesota, and Nebraska. McClain committing to Auburn was actually a bit of a surprise, as 274Sports had him as heavily in Mississippi State's pocket.
McClain may not be highly rated, but he is definitely an athlete. He possesses 4.45 40-speed (per Hudl), which is great for a receiver with a 6-foot-2, 209-pound frame. McClain seems like a player poised to breakout in his senior seasons and could potentially make a big impact for the Tigers in the future.
