The University of Alabama is set to welcome two of its most coveted 2027 prospects this weekend, a quarterback who has already sealed his commitment and a wide receiver who is still exploring his future.
A Commitment Already Locked
Trent Seaborn, a 6‑foot‑3, 215‑pound signal‑caller from the class of 2027, announced his pledge to Alabama last October. Since then, he has said he will return to campus on multiple weekends to help the coaching staff in their recruiting outreach, using his presence as a recruiting tool for the program.
Joining him is Cedrick Simmons, a 6‑foot‑2, 190‑pound wide receiver whose blend of speed and leaping ability has drawn interest from Alabama, Auburn, Baylor, Purdue and West Virginia. After receiving an offer following a standout camp performance, Simmons is using this visit to meet the staff, tour the facilities and gauge how he fits within the Crimson Tide’s offensive scheme.
The visits come at a time when Alabama’s recruiting calendar is buzzing with activity. With both prospects expected to return for additional trips, the coaching staff is leveraging every opportunity to reinforce relationships and showcase the university’s academic and athletic environment. The momentum reflects a broader strategy to secure a strong 2027 class that could shape the team’s depth for years to come.
