Alabama Football: Big recruiting weekend ahead and notes on QB recruits

Nick Saban wants to sign a quarterback in every Alabama football recruiting class. The Tide chased and missed on some top targets. The chase is down to three options, none of whom yet have a committable offer.

Quarterback James Foster is one of nine top 2018 targets who will visit Tuscaloosa this weekend. Foster is a 4-Star, No. 13 ranked dual-threat QB. He lists LSU as his leader but he has strong interest in Alabama football. Foster is also considering FSU. He may or may not be the Tide’s top option.

Gilbert, AZ, 3-Star, pro-style QB, Brock Purdy has a preferred walk-on offer from the Tide.
