The biggest weekend for Alabama’s recruiting cycle has officially begun and the prospects that are compiled on this weekend’s visitor list are unparalleled. With six 5- star recruits, 13 4-stars and four 3-star prospects in town, this has become the biggest push for the finish line in recent memory. Currently, the Crimson Tide have 16 commits and are ranked in the lower tier of the top 10 classes but with a strong finish, they could find their way back to the top.
Touchdown Alabama Recruiting Analyst Derek Hooper and I have put together a break down of this weekend’s visitor list, showing the schools that each prospect is considering and a forecast of where these recruits will end up on National Signing Day in two weeks.
