Social Slant: Auburn Twitter reacts to Joe Phillips commitment

Auburn football has added a landmark addition to its 2024 class. Joseph Phillips, a 4-star linebacker from Tuskegee (Ala.) Booker T. Washington, will be a Tiger.
It is a landmark win because of who wanted him. Georgia, Clemson, Tennessee, Texas A&M and many others were willing to take Phillips even though he is raw as a football player.
Auburn Twitter was given some time to use the process of elimination in figuring who Hugh Freeze may have been tweeting about a day ago.
