The Alabama coaching staff returns to the road for spring evaluations this week. TideSports subscribers get an early treat of where several members of the Alabama coaching staff will visit on Thursday and Friday.
Marlon Davidson, five-star defensive end from Greenville High School in Ala. (Kirby Smart)
The skinny: The state's top player was in attendance for Auburn's A-Day game on Saturday. Davidson continues to say he doesn't have a leader. This is certainly an in-state battle. His brother, Kenneth Carter, a former player for the Tigers has an off-the-field role on the coaching staff at Auburn. Davidson has stated many times the closest relationship he has with any coach (on-the-field) is Kirby Smart.
Lyndell Wilson, five-star linebacker from Carver High School in Montgomery, Ala. (Kirby Smart)
The skinny: Wilson opted not to attend the Alabama or Auburn A-Day game on Saturday. He had prom last weekend. There is a tug-of-war battle for Wilson. He is an Alabama fan, and grew up in an Alabama household. He speaks with former teammate and Alabama linebacker, Shaun Dion Hamilton, on a regular basis. His recruitment won't end anytime soon.
Ben Davis, five-star linebacker from Gordo High School in Ala. (Bo Davis)
The skinny: Davis is in Tuscaloosa often. He was in attendance for A-Day on Saturday. It will not come as a surprise if Davis announces a commitment before the end of the summer. He wants to visit Florida State and Georgia again.
Tre Lamar, Rivals100 linebacker from Roswell High School in Ga. (Tosh Lupoi)
The skinny: Lamar visited Alabama twice this year, and will return in the summer. Alabama is considered one of Lamar's top five schools (if not the top three).
Benito Jones, Rivals100 defensive tackle from Wayne County High School in Waynesboro, Miss. (Bo Davis)
The skinny: The former Alabama commitment (currently committed to Ole Miss) attended Alabama's A-Day game. He remains a key target for the Tide. Alabama remains strongly in the mix.
Jonah Williams, four-star offensive tackle from Folsom High School in Calif. (Mario Cristobal)
The skinny: Williams recently committed to Alabama. The coaching staff considers him one of the best offensive linemen in the country. He is solid with his commitment.
Malik Miller, four-star athlete from Madison Academy High School in Ala. (Mel Tucker)
The skinny: Miller wants to make a decision this summer. Alabama likes Miller, but also wants to see how well he runs (40x). Miller attended Auburn's A-Day game on Saturday.
Raekwon Davis, three-star defensive tackle from Meridian High School in Miss. (Burton Burns)
The skinny: Davis committed to Alabama last summer. He has freakish size at 6-foot-7, 315-pounds. Many are still waiting to see him take over on the football field. The in-state schools continue in pursuit.
Erroll Thompson, three-star linebacker from Florence High School in Ala. (Billy Napier)
The skinny: Thompson received an offer from Alabama last week. The coaching staff will still like to bring him in camp this summer for further evaluations. Thompson is one of the state's top prospects.
Kingston Davis, three-star running back from Prattville High School in Ala. (Kirby Smart)
The skinny: Alabama has recruited Davis for more than a year. The staff evaluated him in the fall, and wants him to camp in June. Alabama expects to take two running backs in this class. Davis recently committed to Michigan.
Ausitn Troxell, 2017 Rivals100 offensive tackle from Madison Academy High School in Ala. (Mel Tucker)
The skinny: Troxell will become one of the South's most highly recruited prospects next year. He may decide to commit early. He grew up an Alabama fan and has an offer from the Crimson Tide. Troxell attended A-Day.
Will Ignont, 2017 Rivals100 linebacker from Buckhorn High School in New Market, Ala. (Mel Tucker)
The skinny: Ignont was raised in Louisiana. He was a big LSU fan before moving to Alabama. He still really likes the Tigers, but has also favored Auburn. Ignont recently visited Tuscaloosa, and Alabama is in a good position with the elite prospect. His sister will enroll at Alabama in the fall. His mother wants the two to attend the same school.
Alaric Williams, 2017 Rivals100 running back from Southside High School in Gadsden, Ala. (Bobby Williams)
The skinny: Williams is one of the state's top prospects. His recruitment will come down to Alabama and Auburn. He also really likes Georgia. Auburn is the early favorite.
Kendall Randolph, 2017 offensive tackle from Bob Jones High School in Madison, Ala. (Mel Tucker)
The skinny: Randolph should see his recruitment take off this spring. He received his third offer earlier this week from Ole Miss. His older brother is former Alabama basketball star Levi Randolph.
