AUBURN -- If Auburn's defense is going to find success this season, the play of sophomore linebacker Demarcus Riddick will be a big reason why.

Clanton (Alabama) Chilton County coach Marvin Morton knew right away Demarcus Riddick was going to be unlike any other player he’s coached. “I first met him when he was an eighth grader,” Morton told On3’s Dawgs HQ. “I knew then that this was going to be a special kid. Over the years he’s grown. He’s grown physically and as a player. He’s always been a good kid. Just watching him grow throughout the years has been very rewarding.” In 2022, Riddick produced one of the best seasons of any defender in Alabama. He had 109 tackles, 19 tackles for a loss, 11 hurries and seven sacks. Riddick also had three interceptions. “His lateral speed, quickness and pursuit of the football really caught my eye with him early on,” Morton said. “Demarcus is special. I’ve never coached an athlete quite as athletic as him. He shows his athleticism on the football field. He also plays basketball and jumps out of the gym. I would say his athleticism and relentlessness define his skillset. He finds the football.”
