From Auburn Wire
On Saturday, the Auburn coaching staff extended an offer to 2023 defensive lineman Tavion Gadson. He is the 37th defensive lineman that the Tigers have offered in the 2023 recruiting cycle. (Daddy like)
Gadson, the Georgia native, is regarded as a three-star according to 247Sports. He is listed at 6-foot-5 and 265 pounds. Last season, he recorded 60 tackles, six sacks, and three forced fumbles for Jenkins High School. Along with being a force on the football field, he also played basketball this past season for the high school.
Several programs around the SEC have offered Gadson– some of those being Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Vanderbilt. Other schools like Florida State and Minnesota have offered and will be receiving a visit from Gadson in the month of June.
The Tigers have assimilated a nice defensive front for the 2022 season, but there may be some turnover after the season concludes. Players like Marcus Harris Jr., Jayson Jones, and Derrick Hall could very well enter the 2023 NFL draft. That leaves room for defensive line coach Jimmy Brumbaugh to add some depth along the interior. Gadson fits the profile whether he chooses to play inside or outside along the front. We will keep a close eye on Gadson’s recruitment as his recruitment heats up.
