Bad news for Tampa (Fla.) Catholic's opponents in 2015.
The Crusader's five-star receiver Nate Craig-Myers is back, and he might be better than ever.
Craig-Myers, 6-foot-2 and 200 pounds, is fully recovered from a broken leg suffered in last season's opener. He proved it this week in 1-on-1 drills as Tampa Catholic started spring practice.
Craig-Myers, an Auburn commitment since July 21, is ranked the No. 1 receiver and No. 3 overall prospect in the 2016 class. He was ranked the No. 1 overall prospect before the injury.
Craig-Myers could be on his way back to re-claiming the top spot. Check out Craig-Myers in 1-on-1 drills in this spring practice video posted on Twitter by former Tampa Catholic-Auburn-NFL receiver Jeris McIntyre.

Four prospects from Central High in Phenix City, Ala. visited Auburn on Tuesday. The 2016 trio of four-star cornerback John Broussard, three-star linebacker Jamal Couch and linebacker Toron Morten made the trip, as did their teammate, top 2017 linebacker Markail Benton.
The foursome met with Auburn coaches and attended the Auburn-Arkansas basketball game.

Auburn continues to extend offers to 2016 prospects. One of the latest to get an offer from the Tigers is Viera (Fla.) three-star athlete Tre Nixon.
Nixon, 6-foot-1 and 170 pounds, now claims offers from Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Miami, Ole Miss, Ohio State and Texas A&M, to name a few.
Rivals.com ranks Nixon the No. 30 athlete in the 2016 class and No. 60 overall prospect in Florida.
