Auburn has always been tapped in down in South FLA, they've gotten & continue to get who they want from the region.
Going back to James Bostic & Frank Sanders in the early 90's, to Stanley McClover, to Pat Sims, to Walter McFadden, to Ricardo Louis, Carlton Davis, Jamel Dean, Travion Leonard, Anthony Schwartz, Shaun Shivers, Jamein Sherwood, Mark Antony-Richards, DJ Williams & snatching up Ladarius Tennison from us. I don't even count Tim Irvin because he wound transferring to ECU lol.
But Auburn has always recruited FL & South FL in particular really well.
In fact, most SEC schools have owned FL for the greater part of the last 2 decades, especially at CB.
