Auburn football rounded out its 2025 signing class Tuesday by landing the signature of a three-star running back.
Omar Mabson, a three-star running back from nearby Auburn High School, signed his letter of intent Tuesday to become the 26th member of Auburn’s 2025 signing class. After reclassifying from the 2026 cycle, Mabson becomes the second running back to sign with Auburn’s 2025 haul, joining four-star Alvin Henderson from Elba.
Mabson announced his commitment to Auburn on Jan. 27, choosing the hometown Tigers over Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, and others. He decided to join Auburn’s 2025 haul after taking an official visit to Auburn during the weekend of Auburn basketball’s win over Tennessee at Neville Arena. Mabson told Christian Clemente of Auburn Undercover that “it feels good to stay home,” but he will focus all his attention on fulfilling his dream of playing in the NFL while on the Plains.
As a junior in 2024, Mabson rushed for 1,515 yards and 29 touchdowns for Auburn High School, where he posted 100-plus-yard outings in eight games of Auburn’s 10-1 season. In his career, Mabson rushed for 2,798 yards and 45 touchdowns in 23 career games.
Mabson is the No. 89 running back in the nation and is the No. 37 overall player from Alabama. Auburn holds the No. 6 signing class in the 2025 cycle, according to 247Sports, with most of their signees hailing from Alabama. Opelika’s Malik Blocton, Highland Home’s Jakaleb Faulk, and Parker’s Jourdin Crawford are just a small number of players joining Mabson in Auburn’s class who call the state of Alabama home.
