Antonio Coleman is an Auburn Tiger, again. The former Alabama commit flipped his decision this weekend, spurning the Crimson Tide for their archrival.
It’s the fourth different pledge the four-star defender has made, as he just can’t seem to make up his mind!
Coleman is a Top 100 prospect on 24/7 Sports, viewed as one of the best players at his position in the 2025 class. Last September, he announced a commitment to Alabama.
Three months later, he flipped to Auburn.
Another three months passed before the lineman switched back to the Crimson Tide, a decision many believed would stick.
“We don’t do that.”

It seems he’s had another change of heart!
On Saturday, he announced a flip, teasing the Tide for a second time only to later choose Auburn.

Antonio Coleman credited Hugh Freeze’s resilience.
“Coach Freeze told me he’s not giving up even when I did commit (to Alabama). He’s determined, and that’s the type of people I would like to be around, but I’m still going through my recruitment.”
He also left the door open for another potential flip!
With Coleman in the class, the Tigers’ 2025 class ranks 11th in the nation. Alabama, meanwhile, sits at No. 2.
We’ll see if his pledge sticks this time around or if he has another change of heart before signing with Auburn.
