Five-star receiver to visit two SEC West powers this month

Looks like two rivalry fan bases will be pretty excited this month.

Tyjon Lindsey is a name many people will become familiar with in the recruiting class of 2017 as he's a five-star receiver out of Coronoa, California who is considering signing with one of the many powerhouses in college football. He has offers from Nebraska, Ohio State, Oregon, Notre Dame and quite a few from the SEC as well.

The 5'9", 180 wideout is going to excite a couple of fan bases and knock out two birds with one stone when he visits Alabama and Auburn later this month. He's scheduled to make his Auburn stop July 17-18 and will couple it with a visit to Tuscaloosa, but it remains to be seen which one will come first.

Lindsey is rated as the No. 4 receiver in the country and the No. 7 recruit in the state of California according to 247Sports. It looks like one advantage for the Tigers is that Lindsey likes the way Auburn prepares its players for the NFL:

"I remember watching them play against Oregon in the national championship game and they had most of their guys NFL ready. Their offense is high intensity and I feel I'd play well there."

I guess we'll have to wait to see what else he thinks about the Tigers and Crimson Tide after his visits later this month.
