Defensive back Marlon Character flips commitment from USC to Auburn
Nov. 02., 2015
Class of 2016 defensive back Marlon Character of Atlanta has changed his commitment from South Carolina to Auburn.
“After careful reconsideration and talking it over with my family I’ve decided forgo my commitment to South Carolina and take my talent as well as further my education at Auburn University,” Character told Rivals’ Woody Wommack. “Ever since the beginning Auburn has been pushing for me. They love me and I love them and I just feel like it’s the place for me.”
The 6-foot, 180-pound Character committed to USC on July 25 after the school held its first pool party for prospects. He was recruited by Lorenzo Ward.
At the time of his commitment to USC, Character said: “It just felt right when I went there. It just seemed like Coach Ward really wanted me and will do a lot of big things with me as a freshman. I have a lot of trust in him and I just want to go down there and make some big plays when I get there.”
Character and Montgomery, Ala., linebacker P.J. Blue have decommitted from USC since Steve Spurrier announced his resignation last month.
Character was favoring Auburn before committing to USC and continued to visit there after pledging to the Gamecocks.
USC now has 15 commitments for the 2016 class.
