The Auburn Tigers have scheduled a visit with one of the best wide outs in the transfer portal.
Hugh Freeze stated in his press conference following the A-Day game that they needed extra help at wide receiver and defensive line, and we are already seeing some action in the transfer portal window.
Auburn will host Penn State wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith for an official visit from Thursday to Saturday, according to several reports. He has one year left of eligibility. In 2023, he recorded 53 receptions for 673 yards. He scored four touchdowns in the air.
According to On3’s Pete Nakos, he will visit Texas A&M on Saturday and Sunday after his visit to The Plains. His trip to Auburn will be his first since entering the transfer portal.
Auburn’s wide receiver room already feels different than it did last season. Cam Coleman, a true freshman, offers an aspect to the Tigers’ offense that has been missing for some years. Sam Jackson and Robert Lewis’ transfer portal acquisitions made Auburn’s pass catchers appear more dynamic than they were a year ago. Also, returning veteran wideout Camden Brown appears to have improved as a player based on what we saw throughout the spring and at A-Day.
The Auburn Tigers would like to add another element to their passing game that will compel defenses to focus on another facet of Auburn’s offensive capabilities. The possible arrival of someone like Lambert-Smith might surely do that.
