  "account": "On decision day for four-star EDGE rusher Jalanie George, the Auburn Tigers are still among his top choices. George, a 2028 prospect from Goodyear, Arizona, will select between Auburn, Miami, Washington, and Wisconsin at 7:30 p.m. CT on Thursday, broadcast live on Rivals YouTube. Rivals' latest projections show Auburn as George's second favorite, but the margin between No. 1 and No. 2 is substantial. Three of the top recruiting experts, including On3/Rivals Vice President of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong, predict Wisconsin to secure George, giving the Badgers a 96.2% chance. Auburn's forecast stands at just over 1%. The positive news for Auburn is that neither Wisconsin nor any other team in George's top selections has received a crystal ball prediction from 247Sports. Despite holding one commitment from the 2028 class in quarterback Sam Sollie, Auburn currently boasts a top-15 class in Rivals' 2027 recruiting rankings, led by four-star cornerback Chance Gilbert.",
