Social Slant: Top Twitter reactions to Auburn landing 5-star LB Demarcus Riddick
Auburn football has landed its first 5-star of the Hugh Freeze era. Demarcus Riddick, a 5-star linebacker from Clanton (Ala.) Chilton County will be a Tiger.
Not only is Riddick a flip from Georgia, he is also a top target for Alabama. The Tigers just pulled somewhat of a double-whammy with this pickup (something it has not done in some time).
Riddick, who holds a 5-star rating, is the No. 31 overall recruit in the country, the No. 3 linebacker, and the No. 4 player in the state of Alabama according to the On3 Industry Ranking.
It is not the first landmark recruiting victory for Freeze, but it is surely one of the biggest. It is also one of the bigger commitments for Auburn in recent history.
As expected, Auburn fans, media, coaching staff, and players flooded Twitter with reactions to the big news.
Here are some of the best reactions we could find.
