This summer, Alabama Football and head coach Kalen DeBoer would emerge victorious in the recruiting process. In June, the Tide attracted more pledges than any other school, propelling the Alabama football recruiting class to the second spot.
Five-star wide receiver Caleb Cunningham announced today that he has committed to work with Kalen DeBoer and his staff, making him the best prospect the Tide have signed thus far.
According to On3’s industry rankings, Caleb Cunningham is the second-ranked wide receiver in the recruiting class and the 14th-best player in the class. Based on industry rankings, Alabama Football has signed three five-star recruits: wide receiver Caleb Cunningham, cornerback Dijon Lee, and quarterback Keelon Russell. The Tide currently have nine commitments in this class that rank in the top 100, according to the On3 Industry Ranking.
Caleb Cunningham was a fantastic recruit thanks to the outstanding work done by wide receivers coach JaMarcus Shephard and Kalen DeBoer. It looked like Cunningham was remaining home or going to Auburn for his last visit, but Kalen DeBoer and his team moved fast to become the front-runners in his recruiting.
There are still a couple targets that Alabama Football needs to catch.
With 22 players committed thus far in this signing class, Alabama Football is getting close to the end of its recruiting class and should sign roughly 25 players. Five-star offensive tackle Ty Haywood, four-star linebacker Ty Jackson, and top-50 prospect running back Akylin Dear remain the Tide’s primary objectives.
The Tide are in a terrific position to land the other targets after securing Cunningham because they have developed close bonds with each recruit who has set foot on campus. Kalen DeBoer’s story has evolved from “he won’t be able to recruit” to “this has to be Saban recruiting or NIL spending.”
