With Alabama in the midst of National Signing Day, it currently has the No. 2 recruiting class in college football.

Among the 26 names that it has, Bryce Young is the most exciting student-athlete the Crimson Tide brought in for this cycle.

A five-star quarterback from California, Young compiled over 13,000 passing yards and 152 total touchdowns in his career.

Listed at 5-foot-11 and 183 pounds, Young was special at the Elite 11 competition and had an incredible performance at the All-American Bowl in Texas. The offense he orchestrated at the powerhouse Mater Dei High School is very similar to what he will see at Alabama. 

While he needs to add on weight and muscle, the question is will be able to unseat Mac Jones to be the starting quarterback for next season?

He has immense potential, but yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine lays out the two most important things Young must do.
