Michael Dyer, one of the top-ranked tailbacks in America, committed to Auburn on Friday. Dyer (5-foot-8, 200), 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. He chose the Tigers over Arkansas, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Florida and Alabama.

Congrats to auburn on the committ. Once again though, it's a long way to February.

One more thing for my gator and lsu brethren. The kid from my HS got named to the Army All-American Bowl yesterday. You guys are neck and neck for his committment.

Hopefully he will work out for Auburn. I would guess that he would get some playing time next season.

i thought lattimore was numero uno?

Keion Payne just committed to miami.

SLOW DAY. this sucks!!!!!

Congrats to Auburn. I hate to see the Hogs lose an in state talent like him but they are loaded and young at running back so it is probably best for Dyer to go elsewhere.

i think he will work out good for auburn offence

November 7, 2009  07:56 PM ET

He's a good RB and we offered him a scholarship. Good pickup.

Sorry auburn, that we beat LSU. I know how you all were pulling against us.

Your right Joe everyone hates there true fear that that fear is BAMA no one want to play us because we can't loose. BAMA National CHAMPS 2009 guaranteed go one will even come close.

Wow did you attend Alabama?

I think Dyer is afraid he couldn't make the team at Arkansas from what I heard. He's actually afraid of competition so that's why he's going to Auburn.

It's all subjective and conjecture at this point. It is highly likely that the #1 RB prospect is going to be neither one of those guys just as it is every year when other kids without as much hype work harder and/or weren't noticed but were better than supposed #1's...once they get their chance in college ball.

then I guess he's hoping to scare off Seastrunk and Lattimore who both has suggested they might end up there. That would be an interesting turn of events if it happened.

I hope he didn't because the spelling is atrocious.
