The Alabama Crimson Tide football coaching staff saw its second decommitment in two days on Saturday as Saraland High School defensive lineman Antonio Coleman announces his flip to the Auburn Tigers according to On3 Sports.

Coleman, a 4-star defensive lineman out of Saraland is considered the No. 13 overall prospect in the state of Alabama and the No. 20 overall defensive lineman. He’s flipped his commitment from Alabama, to Auburn, back to the Crimson Tide in March and now back to the Tigers on Saturday.

His decommitment leaves Alabama with 22 players in the Crimson Tide’s Class of 2025 with just a single defensive line commit in London Simmons out of Mississippi.

An institutional Tuscaloosa restaurant is under social media siege Saturday as a video reportedly showing the aftermath of the owner making a racist comment spreads like wildfire.

The viral video shows a white customer who has asked not to be identified at this time confronting the owners of Nick’s Original Filet House, better known as Nick’s in the Sticks, although it does not show the inciting interaction.

AL.com reports Nick’s opened around 1939 in Knoxville, Alabama, and relocated to its longtime home “in the sticks” on Culver Road outside Tuscaloosa after alcohol sales were allowed in this county. The down-to-earth steakhouse is legendary for its filets and the Nicodemus, a signature drink featuring fruit punch and enough liquor to make one enough for most folks.

In the 80s, its original owner Nick Delgado sold the place to Lloyd Hegenbarth, who died in 2014. His widow Carla has owned it for the last decade and now runs Nick’s with her husband and co-manager Jack Moltz.

The customer in the video told the Thread he was at Nick’s with a friend when he saw an Black acquaintance celebrating a young man’s 22nd birthday with a group.

The customer said he sat down next to his friend, caught up for a while, then stepped outside the restaurant, where he said one of its white owners, Jack Moltz, asked him a question that shocked him.

“When I walked out, he jumped all over me and said, ‘so you condone sitting at the table with the n*****s?’” the customer said in the video.

The fast-spreading video shows the customer exchanging words with Jack Moltz, who he accused of using the slur, while owner Carla Moltz brushes by, threatening to call the police.

A TPD spokesperson confirmed they responded to Nick’s Friday night over reports that a group was about about to fight two people.

“You messed up because this is their first time experiencing here, they’re friends of mine, and you want to make me feel bad because I sat down at the table,” the customer was filed saying. “You asked me if I’m gonna consult with these n*****s!”

Moltz didn’t get very many words in edgewise, except to once call the accusations “b******t.”

As the offended parties prepared to leave, they said they were calm and not going to cause trouble on their way out, except to stop long enough to make their feelings clear to the man who reportedly used the slur.

“You asked me, you said, ‘You condone the Blacks?’ Ain’t no condone about it. They’re my friends, they’re just like us, you just didn’t want ’em in there and I’m not for that,” the customer said. “And you know what, as far as I’m concerned, everybody that eats in here that I know will probably never be back.”

There has been sharp backlash Saturday, with hundreds of negative reviews about Nick’s pouring in across Facebook and other platforms.

Ownership at the restaurant could not be reached for comment Saturday afternoon.

Editor’s note: Nick’s Original Filet House is not affiliated with Jim N’ Nicks BBQ, a Birmingham restaurant with a location in downtown Tuscaloosa.

Brian Kelly and the LSU football staff hosted one of the biggest recruiting events of the summer on Friday for the program’s annual Bayou Splash in Baton Rouge.

For Kelly and the Tigers, they brought in a myriad of commitments in both the 2025 and 2026 classes along with targets at the top of their Big Board.

The invite-only event was once again a huge success for the program with LSU now trending for numerous targets.

One name to keep tabs on is Gulf Shores (Ala.) native JaMichael Garrett.

The four-star 2026 linebacker has seen his status as a recruit skyrocket over the last few months after cracking the Top 150 in the recent update.

A Top 10 linebacker in America, Garrett has the Who’s Who of college football pursuing his services, but after trimming his list, it’s LSU and Auburn who are his finalists.

On Friday, Garrett made the drive to Baton Rouge for LSU’s Bayou Splash recruiting event where he was accompanied by several of the top targets on LSU’s radar.

Following the trip to check in with LSU, he hopped back in the car to make the trip up to Auburn where he will visit with the [Auburn] Tigers on Saturday.

With his finalists set in stone, Garrett confirmed a commitment is “coming soon” with a decision likely coming within the next week.

Right now, LSU is trending for his services following a beneficial visit to Baton Rouge for the Bayou Splash event.

Garrett is an elite-level linebacker who could thrive under defensive coordinator Blake Baker’s system. There is a need for linebackers in the 2026 cycle with the Tigers turning up the heat for Garrett.

LSU currently holds a pair of 2026 commitments, but after a huge weekend on the recruiting trail, we could see more pop sooner than later.

All signs point to Garrett joining the class.

Late Friday night, we saw the first prediction come in from On3 Sports’ Shea Dixon with more buzz trending LSU’s way.

For the Tigers, it would be a tremendous get for a program that is eyeing improvement for the long haul on the defensive side of the ball.

A Top 10 linebacker in America, Garrett is at the top of LSU’s 2026 Big Board with the program looking to get him on board sooner rather than later.

On Friday, he was alongside several top 2026 prospects with the No. 1 prospect in the country in town, Jahkeem Stewart.

Stewart, the the top recruit in the 2026 cycle, is just down the road from Baton Rouge and Brian Kelly’s coaching staff has kept tabs on the prospect many are preparing to call “generational”.

The prized defensive lineman plays his high school ball at St. Augustine High School in New Orleans (La.) where the Bayou Bengals have certainly dipped their toes in over the years.

From Leonard Fournette to Tyrann Mathieu, there have been several LSU greats that have come from the impressive Catholic League high school.

Now, LSU has their sights set on the next great recruit out of St. Augustine in coveted prospect Jahkeem Stewart.

The No. 1 overall player in the country, Stewart is a physical specimen of a defensive lineman who has programs across America salivating at his ceiling.

With a myriad of programs in his ear, Bo Davis and the Tigers have made sure to get in on the action as well.
