Nation's No. 1 prospect hangs with Auburn legend Charles Barkley ahead of Iron Bowl

Published Nov. 28, 2015 1:23 p.m. ET

Rashan Gary is the nation's top prospect in the class of 2016 (according to Scout.com). 

The 6-foot-4, 286-pound defensive lineman out of New Jersey has been the focus of multiple SEC programs. An elite talent, Gary  is expected to come in right away and contribute.

After taking official visits to Michigan and Ole Miss, he's in Auburn this weekend for the Iron Bowl against hated rival Alabama. 

While the pageantry and excitement surrounding the contest is incredibly special, Gary also was fortunate enough to meet Auburn legend Charles Barkley. 

An ardent supporter of the program, it wouldn't be a shock to see the former basketball star drop some "War Eagle" sentiments throughout the time Gary and Barkley spent together.
