Auburn welcomes back a familiar face with the addition of Stanton Ramil, a talented offensive tackle who is ready to make an impact. Ramil, a native of Alabama, spent three seasons at Michigan State, showcasing his potential as a key player. With two years of eligibility remaining, he is set to join the Tigers' offensive line, adding depth and experience to the team.
Ramil's journey began in Thompson, Alabama, where he stood out as a 6-foot-7, 312-pound force. His time at Michigan State saw him redshirt in 2023, allowing him to develop his skills, and he quickly became a starting left tackle in 2024, playing in 11 games. In 2025, he took on a more prominent role, solidifying his position as a vital part of the Spartans' offensive line.
Ramil's talent has been recognized by 247Sports, who ranked him as the No. 121 player and No. 8 offensive tackle in the transfer portal. This ranking highlights his potential impact at the next level, especially with the rebuilding efforts of Alex Golesh and Tyler Hudanick, the new offensive line coaches at Auburn. The addition of Ramil strengthens the Tigers' offensive line, providing a much-needed boost to their depth chart.
The transfer portal rules have also undergone significant changes, with the NCAA Division I Administrative Council implementing new regulations. These changes include extending the portal window from early December to January 2-16, eliminating the spring transfer portal, and requiring graduate transfers to follow the same timeline as others. Additionally, coaching changes now trigger a 15-day window for players to enter the portal, adding a layer of complexity to the transfer process.
