Alabama’s coaching staff has been stopping in to check in on some recruiting targets in the 2026 class. One of the targets that received a visit is running back target Carsyn Baker. Alabama running backs coach Robert Gillespie stopped in to see Baker at his high school on Thursday.

Baker earned an offer from Alabama in June after an impressive performance at a summer camp. The Georgia native landed the offer after a conversation with Kalen DeBoer and Gillespie.

“It means a lot, knowing Alabama is a school that produces good backs, and they believed in me,” Baker said.
