Chance Gilbert Commits to Auburn

Chance Gilbert, the elite eight-star cornerback and 55th overall recruit in his class, has officially committed to Auburn — a major win for the coaching staff who saw him thrive during his visit, praising the welcoming vibe and head coach Alex Golesh’s personal touch. Despite being recruited as a cornerback, Auburn sees his versatility fitting him at safety. Standing at 6’1”, Gilbert dazzled last season with 53 tackles, 3 interceptions, 16 catches for 393 yards and 5 TDs — plus a kick return score — showcasing his all-around athleticism. Scouts rave about his smooth back pedal, speed, ball skills, and instincts, while his 10.57-second 100m time proves his track speed. Gilbert joins a loaded 2027 class with stars like Myson Johnson-Cook and Layton von Bradt, and he’s confident Auburn will develop him for the NFL — no matter the position.
