4-star Texas TE commitment Emaree Winston taking official visit to Auburn this weekend
Texas four-star tight end commitment Emaree Winston will take an official visit to Auburn this weekend, Auburn Live has learned.
Winston, who attends Calhoun (Ga.) High School, is expected to arrive on Friday and stay until Sunday. It will be his first visit to Auburn, according to the On3 Visit Center.
Winston has been committed to the Longhorns since December. Auburn tight ends coach Ben Aigamaua, however, has continued to heavily pursue.
Winston won’t be an easy flip
Flipping him from Texas won’t be easy.
“Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to play in the SEC,” Winston told On3’s Chad Simmons in December. “The more I saw Texas, and the more I saw how they used their tight ends, I started to think more about them. I love the coaches at Texas. I like the offense Coach Sark (Steve Sarkisian) runs and the city of Austin really put Texas on top for me.
“Texas has what I am looking for. Since I was a little kid, I wanted to play in the SEC. As a tight end, I want to be used in the offense and Texas is a great fit for that. Austin is a place I can grow and start the next chapter in my life. I have great relationships with Coach Jeff Banks and Coach Tashard Choice, too. As my recruitment progressed, things just led me to Texas. I have known for a little while that is where I wanted to be.”
Winston is listed at 6-foot-2 and 230 pounds. The On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, ranks him the No. 17 tight end in the country. Winston also ranks the No. 293 recruit in the class and No. 35 in Georgia.
He is the seventh confirmed recruit taking an official visit to Auburn this weekend. Others include five-star wide receiver Caleb Cunningham, five-star offensive tackle Broderick Shull, four-star linebacker Elijah Melendez (Miami commit), four-star cornerback Blake Woodby, four-star defensive lineman Kalen Edwards and three-star offensive lineman Tai Buster (Auburn commit).
