2026 Recruiting

[TiderJack]

We made 4* LB Brayden Rouse's top 4. Bama, Texas, Tennessee and Michigan are his finalists. Lots of $ with our competition.

Recruiting intel on WR Cederian Morgan, LB Talanoa Ili, TE Mark Bowman as elite football players weigh options

"Loy on Morgan's recruitment: "I think, at this point, you really have two tiers and I still like Alabama above the rest. You've got Alabama, Auburn and Florida in the top tier, and Georgia, Clemson and Colorado right after that."

Morgan would be a great get from the loss of Keys and furthermore an in-state kid to boot!

This recent article seems to indicate we have a big lead for Cederian Morgan.

A friend of mine and Bama alum lives in Alexander City where Morgan lives and he said he is a Bama silent. FWIW, the rumor is Morgan and Crowell are a package deal.

5* ATH Brandon Arrington committing on 7/5 and we are one of his five finalist. We like him at CB and he likes all the Cali players, specifically DB's we have on the roster.

This staff is recruiting really well. If they can put it together on the field like I know they can this season in year 2 then Bama fatigue will go into overdrive, again.

BTW, Wiltfong and Josh Newberg has us as the team to beat for Arrington. One of if not fastest 2026 prospects.

I miss the old days of recruiting. Now it’s just meh. The kids that committ may or may not sign in December. I know that was always a possibility , but it seems that big money strolls in late and takes from everyone now.

… and even if they sign in December, they can still leave during either the April transfer window or the next December transfer window.

We made the top 5 for 4* WR Kayden Dixon-Wyatt. Tall WR who plays at powerhouse Mater Dei and we have quite a few on our roster.

Bama and Oregon have locked in OV's with 5* S Jett Washington. He is long and fast. We know whose bag is bigger so hoping we have a chance here.

I know what you mean. I still enjoy it but as I have said before, I have had to look at it as a 6 month agreement (hopefully 1 year when the new portal window rules are adjusted). We have had good retention with starters for the most part so I still like getting the elite guys that are going to start.

Hard not to want a secondary player named Jett.

This article was posted on the football board. 5* Edge Anthony Jones from St Paul's in Mobile. Looks like we are in good position.

Gonna have to sell him on something other than dinero. Knight’s probably got more more money just personally than our entire collective.

Coach Cap and Morgan visited 4* OT Malakai Lee. Nice recruiting trip for both of them! FWIW, I saw a recruiting expert from On3 say Lee wants to play in the SEC and he believes it is down to Bama and UGA. Hopefully Tua will get involved here. Big dude.
