Andrew Ivins, 247 Sports
Few teams have more reason to be disappointed with Raiola joining Georgia than Alabama, who are trailing in the 2024 recruiting cycle. They currently have just six firm commitments and their class ranks No. 20 in the country. which is a relatively low ranking for this program.
However, the Crimson Tide always plays a long game at quarterback. They already have a top five QB prospect in the ’24 class at Julian Sayinand now they’re making a play for the best quarterback in the 2025 class.
That would be Belleville (MI) five-star QB Bryce Underwood, who was recently offered, according to Roll Tide Wire.
As a sophomore, Underwood (6-foot-3, 205 pounds) led his team to a perfect 14-0 seasonthrowing for 2,762 yards and 37 touchdowns and rushing for another 632 yards and eight more scores.
