Shocker: WR DeAngelo Benton signs with Auburn

Your Ad Here

Receiver DeAngelo Benton has signed with Tigers.

Reporters here at the Media Command Center didn't believe it at first. We had to actually view the National Letter of Intent with our own eyes. Why the shock? Well, he said as recently as a few hours ago that he was going to LSU.

Benton originally committed to LSU almost two years ago. He didn't qualify academically and spent a semester at Hargrave Military Academy in Virginia before returning to Bastrop, La.

Benton visited the Plains 10 days ago, but didn't speak to reporters. His teammate is another elite national receiver, Rueben Randle.
