Four-Star DL Antonio Coleman flips to Auburn

Four-star defensive lineman Antonio Coleman of Saraland (AL) High flipped his commitment from Alabama to Auburn Friday afternoon.

The Yellowhammer State defensive lineman joins coach Hugh Freeze and the Tigers’ top 8 2025 class. He is accompanied by four-star defensive lineman Malik Autry, four-star EDGE Jakaleb Faulk, and others.
