Auburn tabbed a finalist for four-star RB Ezavier Crowell ahead of June commitment date
Auburn tabbed a finalist for four-star RB Ezavier Crowell ahead of June commitment date Crowell will now announce his commitment in June, nearly six months before his original date. Earlier this month, 2026 four-star running back Ezavier Crowell announced he was moving his commitment date up from his previous announcement date of Dec. 31. On Thursday, Hayes Fawcett of On3 reported that Crowell will declare his commitment on June 26, nearly six months earlier than his original date. Auburn remains in the mix to land the nation's No. 4 running back, joining Alabama, Florida, Texas, Georgia, and Florida State. Auburn currently has seven commits for the 2026 recruiting class. If the Tigers are able land Crowell, he will be the first running back commitment for the class that ranks No. 33 nationally by 247Sports. He has visits scheduled for Georgia (May 30), Texas (June 6), Auburn (June 13), Florida State (June 15), and Alabama (June 20). The current Auburn running back room features Damari Alston, Jeremiah Cobb, and Justin Jones as returning players, with Alston and Jones leading the group as seniors. They will also feature UConn transfer Durell Robinson, who is a sophomore. Robinson, Cobb, and four-star 2025 signee Alvin Henderson are slated to return for the 2026 season. The addition of Crowell could give the Tigers an elite backfield combo in the future. Crowell is currently the No. 7 ranked player by 247Sports in Alabama, and No. 92 nationally from the 2026 recruiting cycle. Last season, he rushed for 1,964 yards and 31 touchdowns as a junior, and led the Jackson Aggies to the AHSAA Class 4A state championship.

Nation's No. 1 RB Names Top Six Schools, Reveals Commitment Date
There's no doubt that the rise of the transfer portal has altered the way many programs build up a roster, as in many cases it gives them a player who already has years of experience at the collegiate level. However, landing the top high school recruits is still extremely important to retain long-term success, and one of the names that many teams are trying to land is running back Ezavier Crowell out of Jackson, Alabama. Advertisement He, just like many players in the 2026 recruiting class, is starting to narrow down their options and make commitments, and on Thursday, Hayes Fawcett of On3 reported that Crowell will be making his decision on June 26. The final teams left are the Georgia Bulldogs, Florida Gators, Auburn Tigers, Texas Longhorns, Alabama Crimson Tide and the Florida State Seminoles. It's no shock that so many big-time programs are interested in his services, as Rivals places Crowell as a four-star recruit, the No. 1 running back, the No. 4 player in Alabama and the No. 41 player in the nation. In his two seasons at the varsity level for Jackson Aggies, he's been extremely impressive, appearing in 27 games, accumulating 3,701 yards and 56 touchdowns on 334 carries. Advertisement Crowell has also been an effective member of the passing game, racking up 20 receptions, 470 yards and six touchdowns.

2026 four-star running back Ezavier Crowell updates commitment date
2026 four-star running back Ezavier Crowell updates commitment date Could the talented 2026 RB announce his commitment earlier than expected? 2026 four-star running back Ezavier Crowell could be changing his commitment date. He posted on his X account (formerly Twitter) that he would no longer commit on Dec. 31. This could be an indication that he will be moving up his commitment. In early March, he had Auburn listed in his top six schools that also included Alabama, Florida State, Ohio State, Georgia, and Texas. He has visits scheduled for these schools during the summer, with Auburn being on June 13 per 247Sports. He is currently ranked the No. 4 running back of the 2026 class per 247Sports. They also have him ranked as the No. 7 player in Alabama. His teammate and quarterback, Landon Duckworth, is scheduled to visit Auburn on May 16. Perhaps if Duckworth is impressed with the Tigers, that could lead to Crowell heading to the plains. Duckworth is a four-star prospect for the class of 2026 and is rated as the No. 6 quarterback in the country. The combination led Jackson High School to a state championship in 2024. Jackson defeated Cherokee County in dominating fashion, 69-,6 in the AHSAA 4A State Championship. Crowell rushed for 140 yards and three touchdowns in the game. On the season, he rushed for 1,964 yards and 31 touchdowns. In 2023, he rushed for 1,737 yards and 25 touchdowns. Auburn currently has seven players committed to the 2026 class, and is ranked No. 23 by 247Sports. Auburn landed one of the best running backs for the 2025 class with the commitment of Alvin Henderson. Crowell and Henderson could develop into one of the best duos in college football if Crowell commits to the Tigers.
