Alabama Crimson Tide
Alabama 5-star recruit Keelon Russell shares that teams attempted to sway him with NIL deals.
Keelon Russell had a trio of teams pushing to flip him from Alabama before he officially signed with the Crimson Tide.
Russell told media members Colorado, LSU and Texas made a push for him during the Under Armour All-America Game’s media day. The future Alabama quarterback did not reveal the numbers of the offers he received but shared big offers were ‘thrown around.’ He also revealed the Tide had the most competitive offer in ‘his heart’ after starting to recruit him before he earned a lot of recognition as a senior.
“Alabama came to one of my worst practices as a quarterback. I was off that day….and saw something in me,” Russell said.
A visit to Colorado was on the table for Russell. His family considered it but backed off those plans due to rumors, per the Tide signee.
Alabama will officially get the Texas product on campus in January.
