Alvin Henderson listed as No. 8 running back in 2025 class by On3

Four-star Auburn running back commit Alvin Henderson added another accolade to this illustrious high school career last week. On3 sports listed Henderson as their No. 8 running back in next year’s recruiting class.

A consensus top 20 back in the class, Henderson is the second-highest-ranked SEC commit, trailing only future LSU Tiger Harlem Berry on the list. Fellow four-star Auburn target Ousame Kromah checked in as number four.

The 5-10, 198-pound Henderson flipped his commitment from Penn State to Auburn back in June . Now entering his senior season at Elba High School in Elba, Alabama, Henderson has a chance to contend for Mr. Alabama honors after a magnificent junior year in which he compiled 3,523 rushing yards and 64 touchdowns. The 3,523 yards were good enough for the second most in the country.

With Auburn’s current starting running back Jarquez Hunter set to enter his final season on the Plains and the depth chart murky behind him, Henderson can make his case to become the Tigers 2025 starter with a strong final high school season. While he currently sits outside the top 5 in On3’s rankings, another 3,500+ yards on the ground could propel him up the rankings as the fall progresses.

Either way, Hugh Freeze and his staff will surely be excited to welcome the in-state star to the Plains in the summer of 2025. Jarquez Hunter and the Auburn offensive line will try to cement a strong identity running the football until then. Alvin Henderson’s season with Elba High School kicks off on August 23 on the road against Luverne.
