Auburn and Texas A&M have joined the list of teams to offer highly-coveted 2020 forward Corey Walker.

The 5-star small forward has previously picked up SEC offers from Florida and Ole Miss, with the Rebels extending their offer on March 28.

The Jacksonville native also has offers from schools such as Florida State and Georgia Tech.

According to 247Sports, Walker ranks as the No. 8 small forward and No. 26 overall prospect in the 2020 recruiting class.

Bruce Pearl could potentially return several impact players from this year’s SEC title team depending on which ones return to school.

Jared Harper, Bryce Brown, and Austin Wiley have all declared for the 2018 NBA draft and have the option to come back, while leading scorer Mustapha Heron declared with the intention of signing with an agent.

As for the Texas A&M, the Aggies lose versatile forward Robert Williams to the NBA, but could get back center Tyler Davis if he withdraws from the process by May 30.

Both programs advanced to the NCAA Tournament this past season, with Billy Kennedy’s squad making it to the Sweet 16 before losing to eventual national runner-up Michigan.
