Stidham is expected to make a commitment next week.
Auburn is considered the current favorite for the former Baylor quarterback, but schools like Florida and Texas A&M are reportedly in the mix. Stidham would be a needed hand for Florida and Auburn, as both are in dire need of a quality quarterback. Stidham has three years of eligibility remaining after his transfer.
Stidham left Baylor in the summer after Baylor fired Art Briles. In his freshman season with the Bears in 2015, Stidham accumulated 1,265 passing yards and 14 total touchdowns in 10 total games and three starts.
