Hugh Freeze has gone and done it again.

Antonio Coleman, the No. 1 defensive lineman in the state of Alabama in 2025, has flipped his commitment from the Alabama Crimson Tide and is now committed to Auburn, per On3.

“What stuck out at Auburn is the coaches, the atmosphere, and the opportunity that I will have to play there,” Coleman told On3. “Coach Garrett and Vontrell have led me to choose Auburn. I mean those are my guys. They don’t sell you lies, they are straight forward.”

Coleman is rated as a composite four-star defensive lineman. He's the No. 117 prospect in the 2025 cycle, the No. 13 defensive lineman and the No. 10 player in Alabama.

This flip was out of the blue on Friday afternoon and came immediately following a bat-signal tweet from Hugh Freeze himself.

Auburn's 2025 class - which is already ranked top five nationally - now has eight commitments. Coleman is the second-highest rated commit behind Malik Autry or Kendarius Riddick depending on which site you look at.

The Tigers' class includes:

Four-star DL Malik Autry

Four-star DL Antonio Coleman

Four-star ATH Kendarius Riddick

Four-star EDGE Jakaleb Faulk

Four-star DL Jourdin Crawford

Three-star IOL Kalen Edwards

Three-star TE Ryan Ghea

Three-star OT Spencer Dowland
