Auburn target Herbert Scroggins commits to Miami

Auburn football has been extremely busy over the summer portion of the offseason on the recruiting trail, and while the program has had success, it missed out on a big target on Friday.

Following a recent visit to the Plains , four-star EDGE Herbert Scroggins announced his commitment to the Miami Hurricanes. He had previously been heavily favored to sign with the Tigers by both On3 and 247Sports up until last weekend, when he went back to Miami for another visit before his decision.

Scroggins made his visit to Auburn two weeks ago, one that was considered to be huge for the program in landing the prospect. The Hurricanes beat out fellow ACC foes in North Carolina and Georgia Tech as well.

According to the On3 industry ranking , the Savannah, Georgia, product is currently ranked the No. 376 overall player and the No. 34 EDGE in the 2025 class. He is also ranked No. 44 in the state of Georgia.

The Tigers are currently trying to bounce back in the recruiting game after multiple recruits recently decommitting and other schools making moves on mutual prospects.

They rank No. 10 nationally in this recruiting cycle and No. 6 in the SEC, with the hopes of raising that soon and early into the fall football season.
