Alabama’s 2023 recruiting class is rapidly growing this summer.

The Crimson Tide has 12 verbal commitments, including a trio of five stars. Wilkin Formby, a four-star offensive lineman, is one of the top tackle prospects in the class. He is interested in getting Richard Young, a five-star running back, to commit to Alabama.

Justice Haynes, another five-star running back, committed to Alabama on Sunday. He is one of the top backs in the cycle, and Haynes is a Georgia legacy. Formby wants the opportunity to block for two five stars. He called out Young on Twitter to join in with the Tide after Haynes made his commitment. Alabama fans are going to blow up social media if Young commits to the Tide.
