One recruit, who is slated to visit Alabama later in June, has whittled his list of schools down to five. According to Hayes Fawcett of On3 Sports, four-star linebacker Anthony Davis has included Alabama in his list of top-five schools.

He's ranked as the No. 249 overall prospect in the 2026 recruiting class and the No. 17 linebacker in the class.

According to On3's top teams list for Davis, the Auburn Tigers, led by defensive coordinator and linebackers' coach DJ Durkin, lead the way for Davis. However, Alabama is right on the heels of the Tigers, led by inside linebackers' coach Chuck Morrell.
