Apparently Luper has pulled him in for us.

 

Auburn has landed a commitment from the nation's No. 2 dual-threat quarterback.

 

Sulphur Springs (Texas) four-star Tyrik Rollison said Tuesday he plans to sign with the Tigers Feb. 4, National Signing Day.

 

"I just committed to Auburn," Rollison said. "I know Auburn is where my heart was leading me. It's hard to believe I'm going to Auburn. Earlier in the process, I wasn't even being recruited by Auburn, but I went and visited and it's an amazing place."

 

"Once I leave my family in Texas and go to Auburn, it's like I'm going to a whole other family."

 

Rollison was recruited to Auburn by assistant Curtis Luper.

 

"I talked to Coach Luper and told him I was committing. He was excited," said Rollison. "Me and Coach Luper have a great relationship. I've known him for a while. That kind of helped everything."

 

The 6-foot-2, 185-pounder gave his verbal pledge to Auburn after taking an official visit to the Plains this past weekend.

 

Rollison chose the Tigers after narrowing his list to Auburn and Kansas State. He also had offers from Kansas, Nebraska, Texas A&M, Florida State, Oregon and Arizona among others.

 

This past fall as a senior, Rollison threw for a school-record 4,728 yards and 53 touchdowns. He also rushed for 1,094 yards.

 

Rollison led Sulphur Springs to the Class 4A Division II state championship. In the title game, a game Sulphur Springs won 69-49 over Dayton, Rollison combined for 517 yards and seven touchdowns. He connected on 23-of-29 passes for 398 yards and four scores, and also added 127 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.

 

As a junior, Rollison completed 296-of-423 passes (69.9%) for 3,691 yards and 37 touchdowns. He also rushed for 554 yards and seven more scores.

 

"I'm solid," he said. "I'll sign with Auburn."

 

Rivals.com rates Rollison the No. 9 overall recruit in the state of Texas and No. 60 in the country. He is the Tigers' 20th commitment in the 2009 class and second quarterback. Leroy (Ala.) High's Clint Moseley has said he will also sign with Auburn.

Huge get if he qualifies..

If this one qualifies for cheesedick you know Auburn has taken off the gloves to fight Saban.

 

K-State was looking to sign him just to place him in a Kansas juco as he has no chance to qualify even to K-State. Now he's dealing with the $EC so all bets are off.

I am hearing a mixed bag concerning his grades. Mostly pointing to his GPA being fine but his test score is what's in the toilet.
