View Full Profile has made up his mind. Woodlawn's Bruce Breland said McKinzy will sign with Auburn on Wednesday's national signing day.
"I don't know if he's ever had much doubt," Breland said Monday morning. "I think he's just one of those kids that wanted to see other places."
Until recently, other schools had continued a hot pursuit of McKinzy. The 6-foot-3, 230-pounder surprised Breland by taking a visit to Clemson last weekend. McKinzy had previously canceled the trip, Breland said.
But, according to Breland, McKinzy returned from that visit with his commitment to Auburn unchanged.

Now it appears McKinzy will follow through on what he started when he first verbally committed to Gene Chizik's Tigers last March.
