Well, Texas is trying to buy Xavier Griffin and we probably need to be concerned.
My gut tells me we are a hat on the table for this guy...but, I hope I'm wrong.No surprise here but we made 5* S Jett Washington's final 3. Would be incredible to get two 5* safeties in this class but Oregon and USC are throwing around a lot of money. We shall see and would love to add another Jett to this class. This article also shows OV's this weekend with several of our elite targets.

Alabama in Top Three for 5-Star Safety
Kalen DeBoer and the Crimson Tide staff look to be possibly closing in on another 5-Star commitment in the 2026 class.www.si.com
You may be right and hope you are wrong also.My gut tells me we are a hat on the table for this guy...but, I hope I'm wrong.![]()
The parents/agents are already doing that...With all the money these schools are throwing around seems like a good time to jack up the asking prices of players you know you’re not gonna get. Maybe I’m petty (I am) but hey if you know what a “texas” ‘s ceiling is why not offer just under that and force the Texas type teams to pay top asking prices. Bleed them out over a five ten year span. Fine you’re gonna give that LB 3 mill? Cool that means you won’t give this OT tackle 2 anymore and we swoop in
From some Georgia guys I know , they believe he is all Georgia. Kirby really likes the kid. I know he isn’t a top edge on 247( still highly rated) but from what I’ve heard , Kirby has recruited him hard. If we pull Brooks, I’m really feeling good about DeBoers recruiting chops!4* Edge Kamari Brooks is announcing between Bama and UGA on 6/24. Will be tough to get him and we already have Matthews committed and Griffin trending toward us at edge.

4-star EDGE Khamari Brooks sets commitment date to choose Alabama or Georgia
Khamari Brooks is one of the most coveted pass rushers this cycle and he is set to commit to Alabama or Georgia next week.www.on3.com
I do that on EBay and Gunbroker. . Sometimes I end up with something I didn’t want for the price, but it’s the price I pay for being Petty.With all the money these schools are throwing around seems like a good time to jack up the asking prices of players you know you’re not gonna get.

As fast as guys come and go these days it can be hard for me to remember what class they were even in . Bray stuck with me because his signing reminded me of how often Coach Bryant converted HS QB's to DB .Just saying three stars can be good players sooner than later.
I agree with you but nice for him to have a Bama and UGA hat on the table.From some Georgia guys I know , they believe he is all Georgia. Kirby really likes the kid.

Arrington committed to A$M.5* Brandon Arrington left us out of his top 2 after his OV this past weekend. Oregon and A&M are in a bidding war I am sure and I did not expect him in this class. He is projected as a CB and we have the #1 and #5 CB's already committed.
Why are you nervous. You've been around long enough to know how this works. Every June and July manIt’s late June, I’m getting nervous.we need to pick up a few highly rated guys in the next few weeks
Relax dude. It's coming and coming hard. Not sure about Abrams but feel good about the others.It’s late June, I’m getting nervous.we need to pick up a few highly rated guys in the next few weeks
FYI, the recruit is in-state 4* Anthony Jones. Got to love Saban's involvement.
A couple missing from that list that could commit in the coming weeks are 4* OT Malakai Lee and 4* DL Ruffin.Relax dude. It's coming and coming hard. Not sure about Abrams but feel good about the others.
Alabama football recruiting decisions to watch during June, July
With the Crimson Tide trending for some of these prospects as well, it certainly is shaping up to be a loaded late-June and early-July for Alabama, something that you could say has already started with a pair of recent four-star commitments in offensive lineman Sam Utu and quarterback Jett Thomalla.
