The Alabama Crimson Tide’s recruiting trail is heating up, and fans are anxiously waiting for the big summer run to begin. One of the top targets, 5-star LB Xavier Griffin, has been making waves, and his latest social media move has Alabama fans buzzing. Griffin, who recently decommitted from USC, re-posted a story about the Crimson Tide trending for four 5-star prospects, including himself. This subtle nod has sparked hope that Griffin might be leaning towards the Tide. But don’t count out the competition just yet. Griffin remains uncommitted and is set to take an official visit to Texas this weekend. The Longhorns and Ohio State are viewed as strong contenders for his services, making this a crucial moment in the recruitment process.
Meanwhile, rumors are swirling that Alabama’s big summer recruiting run is just around the corner. A tweet from Hayes Fawcett hinted at three upcoming commitments, leaving fans eager for more news. While predictions have Alabama landing top prospects like Jireh Edwards and Brian Williams Jr., nothing is official yet.
The Crimson Tide currently has only six commitments in the 2026 class, fueling speculation that they’re behind on the recruiting trail. However, Alabama’s average rating per recruit is the highest in the country, and they’ve got a strong lineup of elite prospects in their sights. The stage is set for a thrilling conclusion to the recruiting cycle, with two big weekends looming. The highlight will be June 20th, when Coach Kalen DeBoer hosts a slate of top in-state prospects, including 5-stars Cederian Morgan, Anthony “Tank” Jones, and Ezavier Crowell. As the anticipation builds, Alabama fans are holding their breath, waiting for the momentum to translate into commitments. Will Xavier Griffin join the Tide? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – the Crimson Tide’s recruiting run is about to get a whole lot more interesting!
