Four-star offensive tackle Austin Troxell is one of the top rated recruits of the 2017 class, and it's easy to see why: at 6-foot-7, 330 pounds, Troxell is already a force to be reckoned with.
It looks like Troxell has found a school where he wants to be that force, as he committed to Auburn on Saturday according to 247Sports. Troxell later confirmed the commitment on Twitter.
Troxell is a consensus Top 100 recruit, with 247Sports ranking him as the No. 74 overall recruit. Alabama had been listed as his favorite, but it looks like the offensive tackle is going to the Tigers instead.
Troxell is Auburn's ninth commitment of the 2017 class, which ranks 17th in the nation. He also had offers from Florida State, Georgia, and Notre Dame, among others.
