Much of the anticipated excitement for Alabama Football Early Signing Day was spent ahead of time on Tuesday. Several hours earlier than anticipated, 5-Star, offensive lineman, Kadyn Proctor committed to the Crimson Tide.
Proctor will make it official on Wednesday morning. His previously scheduled announcement at 8:45 AM CST will bring no drama. Proctor had been committed to his home state, Iowa Hawkeyes for nearly six months.
Shared credit should go to Crimson Tide assistants Eric Wolford and Freddie Roach – and as always, Nick and Terry Saban.
In the Early Signing Period, Alabama is projected to land 25-28 players. A schedule of known announcement times is provided below.
A list of Alabama Football targets and verbal commits is also provided below the announcement times.
