Auburn 2021 defensive tackle commit Lee Hunter is feeling the heat from in-state rival Alabama and several other SEC schools.

The 6-foot-5, 292-pound Blount standout talked to both Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban and defensive line coach Freddie Roach on Wednesday afternoon.

“They are blowing me up,” Hunter said of Alabama. “Coach Nick is just saying that he wants me and he loves me and he really likes my film. He said he likes me better and better every time he watches it.”

Hunter said he talks to Roach every day and even had a friendly “sporting” encounter with him Wednesday.

“I beat him 42-12 in Madden,” Hunter said.

Alabama isn’t the only school talking to Hunter consistently. He said he talks frequently with Auburn, Florida, Tennessee, Florida State and “a couple more.” He said he talked with Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn earlier this week and talks with at least one member of the Tiger staff daily.

Where does he stand now?

“I’m still 100 percent committed to Auburn, but I’m just looking at some other schools,” he said. “I’m enjoying the process.”

Hunter committed to Auburn in December after a junior season in which he made 77 tackles, including 23 for a loss. He also had eight sacks, forced three fumbles and recovered two.

He said his buddy, Alabama commit Deontae Lawson of Mobile Christian, is putting the heat on him to flip between the two in-state rivals.

“I’m not going to tell you all he is saying,” Hunter joked. “I’ll let him tell you that.”

Earlier Wednesday, Hunter announced on social media that he had committed to play in the Under-Armour All-American Game in Orlando in January. The exact date of that game has not been announced, but it is traditionally the first Thursday in January.

“It’s a huge deal,” he said. “Everyone doesn’t have that opportunity obviously. I just want to go down there and make the best of it.”

Hunter said he has been trying to stay in shape during the coronavirus-mandated school closure.

“I’ve been running around the block, doing all I can,” he said. “Well, I walked around the block the first day, but since then I’ve been running.”

Hunter is the No. 3 rising senior prospect in the state, according to the 247 composite rankings. Pinson Valley defensive back/wide receiver Ga’Quincy McKinstry is ranked No. 1 and Handley DE Dylan Brooks is No. 2.
