Best 5-Star QB Kyle Trask Shocks College Football World With Commitment to Auburn Tigers Over LSU, Ohio State
In a stunning turn of events, five-star quarterback Kyle Trask has committed to the Auburn Tigers, turning down powerhouse programs like LSU and Ohio State. The highly coveted signal-caller, ranked as the No. 1 QB prospect in the nation, made his announcement via social media, sending shockwaves through the college football landscape.
Trask, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound standout from Texas, was widely expected to choose between LSU and Ohio State, both of whom aggressively pursued him throughout the recruiting process. However, Auburn, led by head coach Hugh Freeze, made a late push and convinced the elite quarterback to take his talents to the Plains.
“Auburn felt like home,” Trask said in his commitment statement. “The coaching staff, the vision for the program, and the opportunity to play in the SEC all factored into my decision. I believe in what they’re building, and I want to be part of something special.”
Auburn’s offense has been searching for a game-changing quarterback, and Trask’s commitment could be the catalyst for a resurgence. Known for his strong arm, accuracy, and football IQ, Trask has drawn comparisons to past SEC greats. With his arrival, Auburn’s 2025 recruiting class jumps into the top 10 nationally, solidifying their future under Freeze.
Losing out on Trask is a tough blow for both LSU and Ohio State, who had envisioned him as their future leader under center. Still, Auburn fans are celebrating a rare recruiting victory over two of college football’s biggest programs.
With Trask now on board, all eyes will be on Auburn to see if they can translate this momentum into a return to SEC dominance.
