Jermaine Whitehead: Another Flip Flop Benefits Auburn

The National Champs are quickly climbing the rankings. Whitehead visited Auburn last week and he must have loved whatever it was he saw. 

Originally he committed to Mississippi State to play for Dan Mullen. The Mississippi native has decided to head east and play for Gene Chizik. This is a solid pickup for the Tigers who lost out on Marcus Roberson to Florida. 

Whitehead joins safety Erique Florence in hopes to once again have a dominant secondary for the Tigers. Auburn gave up 24 points a game. Several quarterbacks had a field day throwing against Auburn in 2010. Look out for these two in the future to control the passing attack against the Tigers. 

Both bring shut down corner skills to Auburn. They're both on the light side but will definitely gain some much needed weight to play in the college. 

Mississippi State will looking to other players now. The Bulldogs will turn their attention to athlete Broderick Hall and safety T.K Fleming. This is a huge loss for the Bulldogs because Whitehead was one of their top recruits. 

When a school gets a verbal commit from any player these days it is never final until he signs that letter of intent. Whitehead was playing games and Mississippi State got burned.
