Four-star DT Travis commits to Auburn

A day after saying he would, Brewton, Ala., defensive tackle Jamar Travis followed through and committed to Auburn on Monday morning, according to AuburnSports.com.

The 6-foot-1, 312-pound Travis originally committed to Southern Miss on Dec. 14, but switched his allegiance after a weekend visit to the Plains. He left Sunday after getting an offer from Auburn, with the intentions of discussing his decision with his family before going public with it today.

Travis came away from his visit particularly impressed with defensive line coach Tracy Rocker, with whom he'll work directly.

"He has an impressive resume," Travis said Sunday. "He was just saying if you work hard, you get what you put into it."

Travis' former W.S. Neal High teammate Jared Cooper is a rising sophomore offensive lineman at Auburn.

Travis' commitment brings Auburn's 2009 total back to 20. That number could rise today. There is some speculation -- if you consider Facebook status speculation -- that four-star Sulphur Springs, Texas, quarterback Tyrik Rollison could make a decision today.

Rollison told AuburnSports.com that he had narrowed his choices down to Auburn and Kansas State. He made a weekend visit to Auburn that started on Saturday, so he wasn't wrapping up until today. Stay tuned.

UPDATE: AuburnSports.com reports nothing has changed on the Rollison front. He's still got Auburn and Kansas State as his top two schools and might not decide until after the Feb. 4 National Signing Day.
