"I give all the glory to God! I just want to thank my family...Let the legacy begin," Blalock said in his commitment to Fawcett. The 6-foot-6, 315-pound offensive tackle chose Alabama over the Ohio State Buckeyes, his home-state team, and the Texas Tech Red Raiders.

Blalock is from Austintown, Ohio, where he plays his high school football for the Austintown Fitch. He's rated as a four-star offensive tackle prospect, according to the Rivals Industry ranking, as the No. 297 overall prospect, the No. 30 offensive tackle, and the No. 8 player in Ohio. He's taken nine total visits so far, visiting Pittsburgh, Florida State, Notre Dame, Indiana, Alabama, and Texas Tech once, and Ohio State three times.

He holds offers from the previously visited schools as well as Penn State, Missouri, and Georgia Tech, among others.

Blalock is Alabama's sixth commitment in the 2028 recruiting class.
