Auburn Lands Flip of Three-Star RB Khamoni Williams

The move strengthens Auburn's running-back depth as the program enters a recruiting dead period.

Overview

  • Khamoni Williams rescinded his June pledge to West Virginia and committed to Auburn after taking an official visit to the Plains, sources report.
  • Williams is a consensus three-star running back in the 2027 cycle and is listed near the 500s nationally by the 247Sports composite while ranking among the top 40 at his position by Rivals.
  • His commitment is the 22nd in Auburn’s 2027 class and the third running back to pledge, joining Kingston Miles and Myson Johnson-Cook.
  • Recruiting services moved Auburn higher in their class lists after recent additions, with 247Sports placing Auburn roughly inside the top 10 and Rivals near the top 12.
  • The flip came at the close of the official-visit window and the start of an NCAA recruiting dead period, pausing in-person contact and locking in a late-cycle momentum boost for first-year coach Alex Golesh’s staff.
