Here's a good write up about him, these guys were the first to report Devin committing to Auburn.

Until last season,  Gaulden’s sport of choice was basketball.   His array of skills and talent helped him excel at the guard position.  Apparently hours of crouching down in front of rim attacking opponents honed Gaulden’s cornerback skills.  He appeared at University School in 2009 just as green as the grass below his feet.  However,  his God given talent,  good coaching and a will to compete helped Gaulden speed up his learning curve and transform himself into a D-I worthy prospect.

Due to injury,  Gaulden only appeared in five games for the University School Suns (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) in 2009.  He displayed his great potential in those contests but did not lay down enough body of work to send a rush of colleges to his doorstep.

“At this point,  schools have not been in contact with me,”  Gaulden explains, “but I don’t let that it get to me.  I just use it as motivation because I’m definitely one of the best DB’s in South Florida.”

Nowhere was Gaulden’s potential more apparent than when he appeared at the Shuman’s National Underclassman Combine in Orlando earlier this month.   It’s one of the top events for potential college prospects that takes place across the country.  Gaulden put his money where his mouth is by putting up a 4.50 in the forty, 4.2 in the shuttle and the handcuffs on all of the receivers he went up against in one on one drills.

“My press coverage technique is a huge strength of mine,” said Gaulden.  “I am very physical at the line and I also have good feet to move with receivers.”

Gaulden’s performance was strong enough for him to walk away from the event as the Defensive Back MVP and an invite to the Top 100 in Atlanta this summer.  The Top 100 takes the best of the best from the various combines across the country and brings them to one location to compete alongside and against each other.

It’s only a matter of time before the colleges come knocking on Gaulden’s door looking to secure his services.   It’s a moment he has prepared for but he’s more focused on advancing University School’s team goals for 2010.

“My primary goals are helping my team in any way I can because last year was a disappointing season,” said Gaulden. “My individual goals are playing in all games this year and simply dominating opposing wideouts but my team goals come first.”
