Ekiyor is an offensive guard in the 2018 recruiting class. He is a 4-Star recruit and is a ESPN 300 prospect. He is the No. 1 player in the state of Indiana according to ESPN.
Ekiyor took a visit to Tuscaloosa on Sept. 30 and the visit had to hit home for him to jump ships to The Crimson Tide.
The 6’2″ 322-pounder is Alabama’s 12th overall commit and second offensive lineman commit. He is one of many guys that experts have predicted will flip his commitment for some time.
Alabama is getting a stud in Ekiyor. He creates hole for running backs with incredible quickness and power. He completely take defensive lineman out of plays.
With Ekiyor’s commitment Alabama now has a total eight 4-Star prospects.
