BREAKING NEWS: Ex-Boomers QB, Jackson Arnold, Flips Commitment to Auburn Tigers; Major Boost for Top Class Player
AUBURN, AL – December 16, 2024
In a dramatic turn of events, five-star quarterback Jackson Arnold has officially flipped his commitment from the Oklahoma Sooners to the Auburn Tigers, a move that has stunned the college football recruiting world. Arnold, widely regarded as one of the top quarterbacks in the 2024 recruiting class, made the announcement earlier today through his social media channels.
The decision marks a major victory for Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze, who has been working hard to rebuild and revitalize the Tigers’ program. Arnold, who originally committed to Oklahoma back in 2023, cited the opportunity to play in the SEC and the chance to be part of Auburn’s resurgence as key factors in his decision.
“I’ve always wanted to compete at the highest level, and Auburn gives me that chance,” Arnold said in his statement. “Coach Freeze and the staff have made it clear how much they believe in me, and I believe in the future we’re building here. I’m excited to get started and take this program to new heights.”
Arnold, hailing from the Oklahoma City area and previously the star quarterback for the Heritage Hall Boomers, was a major prize for any program. His electrifying playmaking ability, combined with his leadership skills, earned him numerous accolades throughout his high school career, including state championships and recognition as one of the nation’s top QB prospects.
Auburn’s 2024 recruiting class now boasts another high-profile commit in Arnold, joining a growing group of talent that could make the Tigers a force to reckon with in the SEC in the coming years.
With his commitment to Auburn, Arnold is now set to join a quarterback room that already includes a highly ranked transfer, and expectations for him to step in and potentially start as a freshman are high.
The flip to Auburn is seen as a major coup for Freeze and his staff, who have managed to sway one of the most coveted recruits in the nation away from a major program like Oklahoma.
