AUBURN | Auburn views Tyriq Green as more than just a defensive back, and that’s just fine with the four-star athlete from Buford, Ga.

Green, 6-foot and 185 pounds, spent the weekend in Auburn on his first official visit.

“Really, just all around. Being able to come in here and do everything. Put me in the return game, being able to play corner,” said Green. “It sounds good.”

The Tigers’s coaching staff also talked to Green about coming in and making an instant impact as a freshman next fall.

“Their program, they can see me at it and I can see myself there too. Coming in here and being able to play and be like an SEC/Freshman All-American,” said Green.

One of the highlights for Green during his visit was spending time with Auburn defensive coordinator DJ Durkin and safeties coach TJ Rushing.

“I feel like I got a lot closer with the coaches this weekend. So that stands out a lot, our relationship getting closer this weekend,” said Green.

Green has additional official visits planned to Miami June 6, Florida State June 13 and Georgia June 20. He plans to announce a final decision on July 12.

“Everybody is equal right now. After the OV’s, I’ll be able to decide,” he said.

Green is rated the nation’s No. 6 athlete and No. 160 overall prospect by Rivals.
