Davis Cochran is officially an Auburn Tiger. The four-star power forward signed with the program on Thursday, becoming the first member of their 2027 recruiting class to do so.
He is from Brentwood, Tennessee, and committed to the Tigers back on Oct. 6. He picked them over the Tennessee Volunteers, Oklahoma Sooners, Vanderbilt Commodores, and several other programs across the country.
“Davis is a life-long Auburn fan. This place means the world to him and his family, and we are so excited to add him to our program,” head coach Steven Pearl said in a statement. “He’s an extremely versatile forward that can affect the game in many positive ways. When the ball in his hands he has the ability to score in the low post, shoot the three, or make decisions
to create for himself or others on the perimeter. When it’s not in his hands, he can really change the game as a rebounder and leaves it all out on the floor every possession.
“He’s grown up witnessing the history our program has made and we are very excited for him come to Auburn to make his own.”
Cochran is ranked as the No. 124 overall player and No. 24 power forward in the 247Sports composite. He is also the No. 2 player from Tennessee.
He had a record-breaking junior season at Brentwood Academy, helping lead them to a 30-4 record and a regional championship. He finished the season averaging 22.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.9 blocks per game.
The family grows 🦅💙🧡
