5-star DB Marlon Humphrey commits to Alabama

Nick Saban has added yet another top ranked recruit to this year's recruiting class. Marlon Humphrey, 5-star defensive back out of Hoover High School, committed to the Crimson Tide via his Twitter account earlier on Wednesday.

Humphrey chose the Tide over Florida State, UCLA, and Mississippi State. The Under Armour All-America Game is believed to have narrowed down his choices to Florida State and Alabama before ultimately choosing to stay in-state.

Humphrey is the No. 1 player in the state of Alabama according to Rivals.com. He is the second top 5 defensive back that has committed to Alabama joining Tony Brown who   enrolled at the university in January.

Marlon, whose father Bobby Humphrey, a former running back for the Crimson Tide, was a key contributor to Hoover's 6A state championship run and will be an important building block for Alabama's young secondary.
