Austin Ausberry recruiting younger brother Jaiden Ausberry 'very hard' to Auburn
Jaiden Ausberry, a 4-star LB from Baton Rouge, La., wrapped up his official visit to Auburn on Sunday. He helped his older brother move in just a week ago, and returned to the plains to get a deeper look for himself.
His player host was none other than his older brother, Austin.
“It was real nice. Being here with my brother just moving in. He’s actually in college now so it was really kind of weird at first.”
The two are similar, but have different personalities. The approach to the game remains the same, however.
“He’s more outgoing, I’m kinda quiet. We’re both dogs.”
The younger Ausberry got to see more of Auburn than he ever has.
“Everything went well, just the culture and the vibe. Everything was great and I really had a good time.”
Ausberry will return multiple times
Ausberry’s official visit this weekend was his third time on campus. He has not yet been to a game, but plans to attend multiple games in the fall. He not only wants to see the atmosphere for himself, but also wants to see his brother in action.
“Definitely coming to a few games. I want to see my brother play, too.”
The campus tour and the new facility stood out.
“I took a campus tour. It was my first time actually going around the whole thing. The business school is really nice and the new facility is probably going to be one of the best in the nation.”
With more official visits on the horizon, Auburn is in great shape
Auburn stands in a good spot for the top 100 LB recruit. The pitch from the Auburn staff feels genuine and works well for him.
“They stand in a real good spot. I spent a lot of time here this weekend. They really emphasized how much they want me and how it’s not going to be just the Ausberry brothers. It’s going to be Jaiden Ausberry, and then Austin Ausberry. It’s not just a package deal. I really like that.”

Christian Robinson is key in his recruitment.
“It was real good with Coach C-Rob (Christian Robinson). He recruited me at Florida, so we already have a previous relationship. Even if I don’t come here, he’s always going to be my guy. He recruits on a personal level.”
Ausberry will take some more visits and then take it easy for a while. He will have plenty to think about and wants to see some games in the fall.
“I have Notre Dame next weekend, Texas A&M, then Michigan. I’ll visit those, and after that I should probably know. I will wait until December, because I don’t want to second guess myself.”
LSU and Oregon are also possible official visit destinations for the 4-star LB. If those happen, it will be in the fall for a game day atmosphere more than likely.
How hard is big brother pushing for his younger brother?
“Hard, very hard. He texts me every day. When I got here, he was like, ‘you’re committing after this weekend’. I was like, we gotta wait, bro.”
