According to 247Sports' Hank South, 2017 4-star athlete Chadarius Townsend has committed to the University of Alabama.
"He had a verbal commitment on June 3, but he wanted to have the opportunity to visit other colleges to see what they had to offer as well," Townsend's father said, according to South.
While Townsend's recruiting classification leaves his position a bit ambiguous, he's functioned as a dual-threat quarterback for Tanner High School throughout the early stages of his career.
According to AL.com's Daniel Boyette, Townsend piled up 1,571 yards and 20 touchdowns on the ground as a sophomore while toting the rock 153 times.
