The University of Alabama has its quarterback of the future for its football program in Kalen DeBoer’s first signing class.
Keelon Russell, a five-star from Duncanville (Texas) High School, never wavered on his commitment to the Crimson Tide.
He made it official with Alabama football on Wednesday, putting pen to paper for the Tide. The 6-foot-3, 175-pounder is one of most impressive quarterback prospects to come through the recruiting cycle. He is a two-time 6A Division I UIL state champion at Duncanville in 2022 and 2023, but he is going for a three-peat. Russell has thrown for 3,000-plus yards and nearly 50 touchdowns as a senior.
