Alabama P Riley Quick posts vulgar message, flips off Ohio State with teammates on Snapchat, later apologizes

Alabama took it a photo too far after a big comeback win in the Jax College Baseball Classic on Sunday.

The Crimson Tide came back from ten runs down to win at 12-10 today over Ohio State in Jacksonville, Florida. Then, postgame, P Riley Quick took to Snapchat to post a photo of he and his teammates flipping off the Buckeyes, including a caption with an expletive directed at them.

Now, since then, Quick has posted on social media again with an apology towards today’s opponent and their own school for the photo that he shared.

“After our game today, we let our emotions get the best of us and posted an inappropriate photo on social media. The photo never should have happened, let alone be posted,” Quick wrote in the statement. “I am reaching out to Ohio State to personally apologize. I also want to apologize for representing the University of Alabama in a negative way. This is now what our team is about. We have learned from this and will be better going forward.”

In their final game in the classic, Alabama was down 10-0 at the bottom of the fourth after allowing three runs in the third inning and seven in the fourth, including a pair of three-run homers at the beginning and end of that margin.

From then on, though, the Tide rolled. Alabama scored on a three-run homer of their own at the bottom of the fourth to cut the deficit to seven. Then, while they held the Buckeyes scoreless for the remainder of the game, ‘Bama scored four in the seventh off a single and a three-run homer, scored two in the eighth off of a double, and scored three in the ninth off of yet another three-run homer with that one being in walk-off fashion for 1B Will Hodo. SS Justin Lebron provided the other pair of home runs over the final third of the game. All that allowed the Crimson Tide to overcome the largest deficit in program history in a win.

Alabama had much to celebrate with that win. It moved the Tide to 8-0 so far this season with five wins to start before the three to win this event over Coastal Carolina (9-2), NC State (4-0), and Ohio State (12-10).

Still, the post was too much and, as such, Quick has since apologized for that by him and his teammates.
