Alabama football’s 2024 four-star defensive back target, TJ Banks has a feel for when he possibly wants to announce his commitment.
Banks attends Northridge High School in Tuscaloosa, and he holds more than 10 D1 offers, including offers from Alabama, Tennessee, Ole Miss and others. He is committed to play in the 2024 Under Armour All-America Game. The junior garners a four-star rating from most recruiting sites, and he has a commitment timeframe in mind.
“I am planning on committing June 18,” Banks told Touchdown Alabama. “Right now, I am open. I will probably drop a top three or something sometime next year.”
The Crimson Tide are recruiting Banks as a defensive back, but he is a star on both sides of the football for Northridge High School. The four-star recruit said he is in constant contact with Alabama at the moment.
“I have been talking with coach T-Rob the most,” Banks said. “We talk daily. It is a good relationship.”

Multiple other D1 programs are heavily recruiting Banks, including a couple of SEC programs.
“Ole Miss, Tennessee, FSU, and I like Notre Dame,” said Banks.
The Rebels hosted Banks a few times this season, and Tennessee is another school standing out to the Tuscaloosa product, who likes how the Vols ‘go about things.’
At 6-foot-2 and 188 pounds, Banks has a strong frame at the moment. He is a physical defensive back, who can make effective tackles in space and behind the line of scrimmage. He also has very impressive ball skills.
