Auburn slides in and flips Romello Height from Miami
Romello Height is not going to Miami.
The outside linebacker in Dublin, Ga. has been committed to the Hurricanes since July 1, and he has been strong for The U on social media, but his heart has been with Auburn.
After winning a state championship Friday, Height tripped to Auburn and this was not his first quiet visit on the plains.
He thought long and hard about it and decided he wanted to be a Tiger.
"Auburn started making their move for me about four months ago," said Height. "I have had great visits there. I loved being around the players they treated me like family.
"The coaching staff is amazing. I love the facilities.
"I just fell in love with Auburn."
Height kept this to himself and that was hard to do. He went back and forth, he weighed his options and just couldn't say no to Auburn.
"This is a life changing decision and most people don’t understand how tough it was," said Height. "I am just ready to get to Auburn, be the best teammate I can be and win a national championship."
Height is expected to play the BUCK position.
