Auburn gets 2010 commitment from top kicker

Cody Parkey, a 6-foot, 200-pound place-kicker from Jupiter, Fla., became Auburn's second commitment for 2010, according to the good folks over at Rivals.com. Eddie Gran was his recruiter.

Parkey, who had interest from Florida, Georgia, Miami, North Carolina and Vanderbilt, was ranked as the top kicker nationally in his class by kicking guru Chris Sailer. Parkey made two 52-yard field goals and a 47-yarder this season.

You've got to think Wes Byrum's ongoing problems -- mental and physical -- played a big factor in the Tigers agreeing to put another kicker on scholarship. Plus, anytime you can get the top player at his position, you go after him.

Dothan, Ala., quarterback B.J. Chitty was Auburn's first 2010 commit.
