Auburn flirts with Tucker DL Deion Roberson

Tucker defensive lineman Deion Roberson said his commitment is solid with North Carolina State, despite Auburn trying to get into the picture last week.

Roberson, a 6-foot-3, 258-pounder who missed the entire season with a dislocated left ankle suffered in the 2008 opener, committed to the Wolfpack after an official visit there two weeks ago.

He said in a text message this past weekend that “Auburn tried to change my mind,” but he “turned them down.”

“I’m happy with N.C. State,” he told the AJC on Sunday night.
