The wheels are always churning for the Alabama coaching staff on the recruiting trail. There is always work to be done.

In recent years, Alabama fans have realized that enough is never enough. Well, that is how it seems to the fans at least. The coaching staff continues to work effortlessly to flip some of the nation’s top recruits.

In 2023’s recruiting cycle, Alabama was able to flip five-star edge rusher Keon Keeley, five-star offensive tackle Kadyn Proctor, and three-star offensive guard Roq Montgomery.

Now, the Crimson Tide are working the phone lines with hopes of flipping several more recruits in the 2024 recruiting cycle.

Roll Tide Wire takes a look at five recruits that Alabama could potentially flip on early national signing day.

Alabama does not have a running back commit for the ’24 recruiting class. One of the running backs that the coaching staff has been making a late push for is Miami (FL) commit and Tuscaloosa native Kevin Riley. The local product has been committed to the Hurricanes since June.

However, it has not stopped the Crimson Tide from pursuing the four-star ball-carrier. Over the weekend, Riley took an official visit to Tuscaloosa. Riley will sign on Wednesday at Tuscaloosa County High School. The general consensus is that Riley will flip his commitment and sign with Alabama.

One recruit that Alabama would welcome to its class is five-star defensive lineman Eddrick Houston. The product of Buford High School (Ga.) committed to Ohio State prior to the start of his senior season. With a day until early National Signing Day, there is growing optimism that Houston will flip his commitment to Alabama.

After all, Houston took an official visit to Tuscaloosa this past weekend. The visit comes after rumors of Ohio State defensive line coach Larry Johnson potentially retiring. The Alabama coaching staff has made it known to Houston that he is a priority in this year’s class. With the recent surge of success that Alabama has had at Buford, it would not be surprising to see Houston flip from the Buckeyes to the Crimson Tide on Wednesday.
