aubiefifty 16,870 Posted December 3, 2023 Share Posted December 3, 2023 si.com Ranking Auburn Football's Flips in the 2024 Recruiting Class Lance Dawe 3–4 minutes Here's a ranking of all four flipped commitments in Auburn's 2024 recruiting class. Hugh Freeze has done an amazing job with Auburn's 2024 recruiting class. The Tigers now have three five-stars committed with the addition of Cam Coleman, who flipped from Texas A&M to Auburn on Thursday afternoon. Freeze has flipped four prospects away from their original school of choice, all from teams within the SEC. It's been an extremely impressive run that may not end with Coleman's flip. Here's a ranking of all four flips in Auburn's 2024 recruiting class. WR Cam Coleman - Texas A&M Ranked by 247Sports as the No. 7 player in the country, Coleman’s 6-foot-4 and 190-pound frame combine extremely well with his elusiveness and tremendous catch radius. In short, Coleman has shown the physical skills and football IQ to one day be a college football star. This was a dramatic flip that took months of work following his commitment to Texas A&M. LB Demarcus Riddick - Georgia This kid is a monster on the field. Riddick's talent as a five-star prospect is evident, and he had a stat line in his junior year to prove it. The rising senior totaled 109 tackles, 19 tackles for loss, seven sacks, three interceptions, four pass deflections, and a forced fumble. He can play in the box as a middle linebacker, on the line as an edge, and has enough versatility to be productive in guarding wide receivers and tight ends. Flipping any player away from Georgia - especially a high-profile linebacker like Riddick - goes a long way for the Tigers' future recruiting success in the Bulldogs' state. Auburn needs more momentum there, and they started it with Riddick. WR Perry Thompson - Alabama Thompson flipped from Alabama back in July and gave Auburn their first five-star commit since the 2019 recruiting class. The No. 32 overall prospect is a big, physical receiver with a large catch radius. Just how Freeze likes his receivers. Auburn desperately needs some height and aggression on the outside, and Thompson provides that. A flip from the Tigers' archrival was icing on the cake. As much as Hugh Freeze and Auburn need to start winning more in Georgia, they desperately need to start making moves in Alabama. EDGE Jamonta Waller - Florida A 6-foot-2, 225-pound EDGE from Picayune Memorial High School in Picayune, Mississippi. Walker is the No. 5 EDGE and the No. 29 prospect overall in the 2024 class according to the 247Sports recruiting rankings. During his junior season, Walker finished with 106 tackles, 24 TFL, 11.5 sacks, one INT, one forced fumble, and two fumble recoveries. A statistical beast that flipped from a strong SEC school.

They still have to sign, but Auburn currently has commitments from three of the top five players in the 2024 recruiting cycle from Alabama, including five-star wide receivers Cam Coleman and Perry Thompson. The Tigers are also making hay in the 2025 cycle with three of their five blue-chip commits being from the Yellow Hammer state and they are now the favorites to land another. On Saturday, Auburn Undercover’s Christian Clemente cast a crystal ball for four-star linebacker Eric Winters to commit to Auburn. Winters is from Enterprise, Alabama, and has visited Auburn numerous times this season, including for the Iron Bowl. He is the No. 110 overall player and No. 14 linebacker in the 247Sports composite ranking. He is also the No. 10 player from Alabama.
