Little Rock five-star running back Michael Dyer, considered the nation’s No. 1 running back by ESPN/Scouts Inc., pledged his commitment to Auburn for the 2010 season today, according to a bevy of recruiting sites.

Those would be: AuburnSports.com, AuburnUndercover.com and AUTigers.com.

Dyer was recruited by pretty much every big school in the country, but had narrowed his choices down to Auburn, Tennessee and Arkansas. He told AuburnSports.com that he’ll talk to the Auburn coaching staff about whether or not he should still go on official visits to those schools.

Dyer, 5-foot-8, 200 pounds, has 7,566 rushing yards and 74 touchdowns in his high school career.

He is the Tigers’ 20th commitment for the 2010 class and the first running back.
