Appalachian State OLB transfer Jalen McLeod taking visit to Auburn

McLeod was one of the best in the Sun Belt this past season.

Auburn football is hosting a number of transfer this weekend.

Jalen McLeod, an Appalachian State outside linebacker transfer, is taking a visit to the Plains this weekend, per Christian Clemente of 247Sports.

McLeod, a 6-foot-1, 230-pound OLB, played three seasons for the Mountaineers, collecting 75 tackles, 12.5 TFL and nine total sacks. In 2022 McLeod had 41 tackles to go along with 7.5 TFL and six sacks. He was an All-Sun Belt Honorable Mention.

He had three tackles, two sacks and two forced fumbles in App State's dramatic 17-14 win over No. 6 Texas A&M last season.

Fellow Sun Belt player Isaac Ukwu (James Madison) is also taking a visit to Auburn this weekend.

The Tigers have had six players depart from the program within the last few weeks, including three backup linebackers:

Wide Receiver Tar'Varish Dawson

Defensive lineman Jeffrey M'ba

Defensive lineman Tobechi Okoli

Linebacker Kameron Brown

Linebacker Desmond Tisdol

Linebacker Powell Gordon

Auburn has pulled in an impressive haul thus far during Hugh Freeze's first season on the Plains, currently sitting at No. 3 nationally in 247Sports' transfer portal class rankings.
