Jeremiah Cobb put pen to paper, officially making him an Auburn Tiger.

Jeremiah Cobb officially made himself a Tiger by signing his letter of intent to play football at Auburn.

Cobb was a massive get for the Tigers when they landed him back on July 1st.

He has track star speed and has been clocked running the 100-meter dash in a lighting quick 11.13 seconds.

Cobb is from Montgomery, where he attended Montgomery Catholic Prep. He put up video game numbers during his time in high school.

With Tank Bigsby heading to the NFL, Cobb could jump right into touches for the Tigers as he will mix in with Jarquez Hunter and Damari Alston.

This may be the most intriguing pickup of Auburn's 2023 recruiting class. Cobb was a monster at Montgomery Catholic High School, posting insane stats and displaying a well-rounded skill set. 247Sports noted in their analysis that "not one physical trait that stands out among the rest but (Cobb) possesses a well-rounded skill set and has a good feel for the position."

And a good feel he has. There have been several comps thrown out for Cobb, and one many recruiting experts come back to is Alvin Kamara, given his ability to catch passes out of the backfield and turn anything into a big gain. There's not a particular area of weakness in his game (outside of the fact that he's still raw, as any high school talent), which is great news for the Tigers, who would expect him to take over the starting role as early as 2024 if Jarquez Hunter were to declare for the NFL Draft.

Cobb has some serious potential to become a great weapon in Hugh Freeze's offense.
