Earlier this week, former Akron offensive tackle Ronan Chambers announced on his social media that he was committing to the Auburn football program. He entered the transfer portal in January and spent the past month committed to Tulane, but flipped to the Tigers on Monday after spending the weekend on the Plains for an official visit.

A 2-star prospect in the class of 2020, Chambers signed with the Zips out of high school and spent four seasons at Akron before hitting the portal in January. The fifth transfer pickup this spring for head coach Hugh Freeze and co., Chambers will have one year of eligibility left and is expected to play the role of a rotational lineman similar to what he did at Akron, according to Auburn Live.
