One of the many prospects on the plains will be 2027 four-star linebacker Isaac McNeil. It is a last chance for Auburn to make a great impression on the in-state prospect, as he is expected to make his choice on June 2, according to Chad Simmons of Rivals. McNeil is also considering Florida, Georgia, and LSU.
According to Simmons, Auburn has made McNeil feel like a high priority. Also, defensive coordinator DJ Durkin and the defensive coaches have been aggressive in recruiting McNeil. The competition is great, though, for the Tigers and the other teams pursuing him.
McNeil is from Mobile, Alabama, where he plays for Vigor High School. The team had a successful 2025 season, compiling a 12-3 record that ended with a loss to Moody in the AHSAA 5A State Championship Game. McNeil was second on the team with 92 tackles and had 16 tackles for loss. He also has shown an ability to put pressure on the quarterback with nine sacks and nine hurries. McNeil also made an impact on offense, scoring four rushing touchdowns. He is rated as the No. 2 player in Alabama and the No. 4 linebacker nationally for 2027 by 247Sports.
A strength for the current Auburn team is the linebackers position, but they will need to replenish that talent in the future. McNeil would be an important addition for future teams. Auburn has only one linebacker committed for the 2027 class, three-star Kareem Palmer.
