Reaction edition with Brian Smith, host of the portal, Lockdown's recruiting NIL transfer

portal show.

Jace Matthews, a top 100 player, an elite player in the 2026 class, commits to the

Auburn Tigers over LSU, over Ole Miss, over Texas A&M.

This was a big one, Brian, and Hugh Freeze and the Auburn coaching staff got this

one done. This is a young man that I am probably higher on than anybody. His film is insane.

And I just love his overall athleticism. For those that don't know, he lives like the first town

north of where Deuce is from. So they're buddies. They know each other.

I'm sure that played a role in it. But like, I don't care what sport that you really want to use Jace Matthews in. You put him at center fielder. You can make him a triple jumper. You could make him a soccer player. It would matter. You can jump out of the gym, has incredible hand-eye coordination, and he's fast.

So, I mean, this is an NFL player in waiting.

The only reason that he's not talked about more is he's in a small town of Mississippi. Yeah. It's just simple. He says, yeah. And even with that, Brian, rivals has him as the number two receiver in this class. Yeah. Yeah.

I mean,

it's,

you watch his film and you're like, okay, well, he's beating guys that he should, but he makes people look really bad. Like this, there's no nice way to say. Like, some of the, I just watched his video again for fun right before we came on. And I'm like, this is hilarious. this is hilarious his ability at the line to shake and move he's more like a five nine guy instead

of a six-1-662 guy.
