The Alabama Crimson Tide added a couple of dual-sport athletes to the roster on Tuesday with the signing of brothers Xavian and Torin Marks of George Ranch High School in Richmond, Texas.
Both brothers excel in football as well as track. Xavian is said to have received a scholarship in football, while Torin will be walking on for the Crimson Tide, per AL.com.
Xavian, a 5-foot-9 160 pound back, is a speedster and will add much-needed depth at the running back position. Torin (6-foot, 180) played both wide receiver and defensive back in high school.
Both players were previously committed to New Mexico State. Stay tuned as we follow up with the brothers on their decision to roll with the Tide.
