Benjamin Russell 4-Star QB set to choose between Alabama, Florida, Vanderbilt on ESPN

Kingston Preyear is set to announce his commitment decision at 1:15 p.m. CST on Friday.

Preyear attends Benjamin Russell High School in Alexander City, Alabama, and he garners a four-star rating from most recruiting sites as a 2028 prospect. He will choose between Alabama, Florida and Vanderbilt on Friday LIVE on ESPN’s College Football Live on ESPN 2 during the early part of the 1 p.m. hour segment of the show.

Here are his thoughts on each school ahead of his decision:

Alabama

“Alabama has been one of my favorite schools since I was younger,” Preyear said. “I grew up watching them and have always respected the tradition of the program. I’ve built a great relationship with the coaching staff throughout the recruiting process. Alabama has a proven history of winning and consistently developing players for the next level. Coach (Ryan) Grubb has a great offensive mind and a strong track record of developing quarterbacks. Coach (Bryan) Ellis brings a lot of knowledge to the position, and I appreciate the way he teaches the game and builds relationships with his players. Every visit has been a great opportunity to learn more about the program and continue building those relationships.”

Florida

“I’ve built a great relationship with all of the programs,” Preyear said. “Florida was the first school to offer me after the season, and made it feel like home every time I’ve been down there. With some of the staff being from Alabama, we’ve got a tight bond.”

Vanderbilt

“Vanderbilt is a great school,” Preyear told Touchdown Alabama. “Academics are huge, and football is growing, so you’re getting the best of both worlds there. I have a great relationship with the entire staff. Coach TK (Trenton Kirklin) is a great coach, with what he knows mechanically, to help a quarterback. Coach Beck is one of the best play-callers in CFB. Creating plays to get his weapons the ball and to win games.”

Preyear is expected to be a dual-threat quarterback at the next level.

The four-star has been one of the top passers in Alabama high school football in recent years. He threw for 3,127 yards and 31 touchdowns as a sophomore for the Wildcats last season and added 564 rushing yards.
