Spanish Fort center Reese Dismukes

Three of Auburn’s current commitments and several of its targets are more famous today than they were yesterday. They’re official members of the new ESPN 150 rankings, which were released today for the first of many more times before Signing Day.

Auburn’s newest commitment, quarterback Kiehl Frazier (Springdale, Ark.), ranks the highest among Tiger commitments, coming in at No. 39. Among quarterbacks on the list, Frazier is ranked fourth.

Spanish Fort center Reese Dismukes (52) and Marietta guard Thomas O’Reilly (145) also represent Auburn—for now—on the list.

The vast majority of players on this list have yet to commit anywhere and a large number will probably wait until Signing Day. Auburn had a whole bunch of these players on campus this past weekend for Big Cat Weekend II, including DE Ray Drew (3), DE Xzavier Dickson (23), DL Gabe Wright (92), TE Brandon Fulse (93) and RB Mike Blakely (116).

Spanish Fort offensive lineman Reese Dismukes committed to Auburn on Wednesday afternoon, already giving the Tigers three big offensive line prospects for the class of 2011.

Dismukes was to be choosing between Alabama and Auburn at the press conference, which was live-streamed on the Montgomery Advertiser’s website, but he said his mind was made up two weeks ago.

“When you go there, you don’t see a different picture every time you go. You get the same thing every time,” said Dismukes, who was at Saturday’s A-Day game at Jordan-Hare Stadium. “Everyone’s family.“

Dismukes, a 6-foot-3, 275-pound center, is a four-star recruit, according to Scout.com, and ranks as the No. 3 center in the nation. He is also an
Under Armour All-American and a member of the ESPNU 150 Watch List.

Dismukes said he understands the future of Auburn’s offensive line. Four of the five players expected to start this season won’t be around when he enrolls, including center Ryan Pugh.
