Cederian Morgan, a five-star wide receiver from Benjamin Russell High School in Alexander City, Alabama, has set a commitment date for July 2.

Morgan will choose between the following schools:

Alabama
Auburn
Clemson
Colorado
Georgia
Florida

Morgan is ranked as a five-star prospect in the 2026 recruiting class, the No. 2 wide receiver in the class, and the No. 2 player in Alabama. He's a top-20 prospect in the country, and he sits just 122 miles from one of the most prestigious programs in college football history.

The 6-foot-4, 210-pound wide receiver has been to Alabama six times so far during his recruitment, with visits to the Capstone on:

May 31, 2024
July 28, 2024
September 28, 2024
November 30, 2024
February 1, 2025
and April 12, 2025

Alabama is the school Morgan has visited the most, but he has taken five visits to Auburn, three to Florida, and one to Clemson so far.

In addition to the numerous visits he's taken to Tuscaloosa, the Alabama coaching staff has also been to Benjamin Russell High School to visit the top in-state prospect.

Morgan said he would wait until he took all of his official visits before making his college decision.

Morgan has six official visits scheduled this summer, with all of his finalists getting visits. His full official visit schedule is:

Colorado: May 9
Georgia: May 16
Clemson: May 30
Florida: June 6
Auburn: June 13
Alabama: June 20

247 Sports recruiting expert Tom Loy likes where Alabama sits with the No. 2 receiver in the country, giving Alabama the best chance to land the superstar prospect.

Morgan has also been projected to land with Alabama by On3 Recruiting expert Steve Wiltfong, continuing to build the smoke that the Tide is the team to beat.

During his junior season campaign in 2024, Morgan caught 70 passes for 1,162 yards (16.6 yards per catch) and 14 touchdowns.
