The Alabama roster for the Mississippi-Alabama All-Star game was released this week and for Alabama commit, Pierce Quick, it is a game he had dreamed about playing in.
“It’s a huge accomplishment,” Quick said. “I can still remember driving to Montgomery during my freshman year to watch it and just dreaming of playing in it.”
Quick will have the opportunity to live out one of his many dreams on Dec.17 as his name was listed on the 2018 Alabama roster. He will play alongside five of his future Crimson Tide brethren as fellow Alabama commits Christian Williams, Will Reichard, Taulia Tagovailoa, Amari Kight, and DJ Dale also made the roster. There was also some big-name snubs on this year’s roster, which is expected with the amount of talent in the state. One of the biggest snubs was Quick’s teammate and Alabama commit, Paul Tyson.
Former Alabama defensive lineman and Hewitt-Trussville’s current defensive coordinator, Rudy Griffin, knew this moment was coming for Quick. The 5-Star offensive tackle is second to none in his eyes.
“It is not really a shock,” Griffin said. “Pierce has been the best offensive linemen in the state for the past two years.”
The game will be played in Montgomery, Alabama. Kickoff is set at 6:30 p.m. Streaming information will be provided as it becomes available.
