5 Alabama signees taking center stage at UA All-American practices

[ad_1]

The Alabama Crimson Tide will be well represented in this year’s Under Armour All-American game in Orlando. Five signees will compete in the game that will take place on January 2 inside DeLand’s Spec Martin Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 4 EST / 3 CST and will be nationally televised on ESPN.

The five signees that are participating in the game and will take center stage for the Crimson Tide are quarterback Keelon Russell, offensive lineman Micah DeBose, tight end Marshall Pritchett, running back Akylin Dear, and cornerback Dijon Lee Jr.

Four of the five signees — Russell, DeBose, Lee Jr., and Dear will be a part of Team Icon whereas Pritchett will be on the opposite sideline and a part of Team Unstoppable.

Pritchett joined the Crimson Tide several days ago in Tampa in preparation for the ReliaQuest Bowl. He made the trek from Tampa to Orlando on Sunday morning to compete in the highly anticipated all-star game.

Russell headlines the group of Alabama signees. The Texas native was recently named as the Gatorade National Player of the Year in high school football. As a senior, he passed for 3,652 yards and 52 touchdown passes to just two interceptions. All eyes will be on Russell as he looks to further solidify his status as one of the best quarterbacks in the 2025 recruiting class.

Each of the five signees have the potential to make some big-time plays and represent themselves as well as Alabama on a big stage. It will be interesting to see how each of them stack up against some of the top talent in the country in both the 2025 and 2026 recruiting classes.
