One of the nation's top uncommitted prospects in the class of 2015 will make an official visit to Alabama later this month.
Kobie Eubanks, a 6-foot-5, 212-pound wing guard from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., will make his trip from May 19-21. His coach at Elev8 Sports Institute, Chad Myers, confirmed the news to AL.com. According to Evan Daniels of Scout, he is also trying to set up a visit to West Virginia. Eubanks' Alabama visit will come right after his visit to Kansas, Myers said.
"I think he has interest because he feels like he would have a chance to step in and hopefully contribute right away," Myers said.
Alabama is thin at the 2-guard spot, though it has three point guards and a several players who would be listed as small forwards.
Eubanks is rated as the No. 89 overall prospect in the 247Sports composite rankings.
Eubanks was originally committed to Baylor but backed off that pledge last November. His younger brother Nick Eubanks is a high-profile tight end recruit in the 2016 class and has an Alabama offer.
Alabama has two or three scholarships left for the 2015-16 season, depending if Avery Johnson Jr., a transfer from Texas A&M and head coach Avery Johnson's son, will be a walk-on or not. Alabama has not confirmed his signing, but AL.com reported on the transfer last week.
Alabama hosted 2015 small forward Dikembe Dixson from West Virginia last weekend and is in the mix for James White, a power forward who is a graduate transfer from UALR.
