Nine months ago, the Alabama Crimson Tide joined a slew of powerhouse programs that had extended an offer to Monshun Sales, a five-star wide receiver out of Indiana.
With 37 FBS offers already in his back pocket, Sales could truly decide to play college football anywhere in the country. However, how could someone turn down a chance to play for the most dominant program since the turn of the century?
Since 'Bama sent him an offer, Sales has gained only more and more national attention. However, most recently, the Tide and head coach Kalen DeBoer received a small hint that he might be leaning in their direction.
Is Monshun sales leaning toward Alabama?
Months after Sales took to social media to share that he had received an offer from the Tide, four-star quarterback and Alabama commit Trent Seaborn commented on his post, saying, "This the one, brodie."
Sales, keeping it as simple and noncommittal as possible, reposted Seaborn's comment with two side-eye emojis. However, that's quite literally the most he has said about his recruitment process so far.

Obviously, as the No. 2 wideout in the class of 2027 and the No. 1 prospect out of Indiana for the upcoming recruiting cycle, all eyes are on Sales' journey, but with his recent post, it looks like his eyes are on the Crimson Tide.
Sales has made just one trip to Tuscaloosa so far, already taking five visits to the Michigan Wolverines and four visits apiece to his home-state teams, the Indiana Hoosiers and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
However, despite the minimal face-to-face interactions, national recruiting expert Steve Wiltfong recently placed a prediction that Sales would end up with the Tide, choosing Alabama over the three dozen other programs.
