Commit Quick Scout: Jay Crawford, CB Auburn

Jay Crawford is already stamped.

A Freshman All-American, Georgia product out of Parkview High, and a corner who played real snaps from day one in the SEC.

At Auburn, Crawford put two efficient seasons on tape:

30 total tackles

11 pass breakups

2 interceptions

Multiple starts across two years

6’0”, 180 pounds

Right now, he sits as the #2-ranked cornerback in the transfer portal, and for good reason. He stays in phase, challenges the catch point, and doesn’t rely on panic speed or penalties to survive. His PBU totals tell you everything: disciplined eyes, strong leverage, and timing at the moment of truth, the catch point.

Now plug him into the Ole Miss Rebels defense.

Under Pete Golding, pressure is non-negotiable. Corners have to hold up so the front can eat. Crawford already has SEC tape showing he can do exactly that. Add Bryan Brown, one of the best DB developers in the country, and the jump becomes inevitable.

This isn’t a project.

This isn’t a “give him a year” eval.

Crawford raises the floor immediately. When he’s on the field, the call sheet opens up. You can press. You can heat the quarterback. You can live in man on third down without babysitting the boundary. That’s what plug-and-play really means, not just talent, but trust. Jay Crawford brings SEC proof, portal value, and NFL-caliber habits into the DB room on day one and now he is committed to Ole Miss.
