Summary
- Alabama aims to recruit two quarterbacks annually for future depth.
- Coach DeBoer emphasizes competition and transparency with recruits.
- Alabama is targeting two quarterbacks for the 2027 recruiting class.
Alabama football is prioritizing the quarterback position by recruiting two players for the 2026 class, Jett Thomalla and Tayden Kaawa. This strategy aligns with a program history of dual-quarterback recruiting, exemplified by the 2017 class that included Tua Tagovailoa and Mac Jones.
Head Coach Kalen DeBoer views this dual-quarterback approach as crucial for maintaining depth and fostering healthy competition within the team. He noted that transparency with recruits about the competitive environment is key to their success.
The Crimson Tide plans to continue this trend, aiming for two quarterback recruits in the 2027 class as well, starting with Trent Seaborn. DeBoer expressed confidence in Thomalla and Kaawa, praising their arm talent, competitive spirit, and winning mentality.
