How Michael Dyer's commitment to Auburn affects Marcus Lattimore
Posted Nov 7, 2009
Michael Dyer, one of the top-ranked tailbacks in America, committed to Auburn on Friday. Dyer, from Little Rock Christian in Little Rock, Ark., is considered the No. 1 running back in the country by ESPN, and No. 3 by Scout.com and Rivals.com. The big question is how Dyer’s commitment will affect the nation’s other top-rated backs. Marcus Lattimore of Duncan, S.C., and Lache Seastrunk of Temple, Texas, ranked 1 and 2 by the other services, were also considering Auburn. The general thought was that two backs of that ilk wouldn’t go to the same school.
