Alabama secured its first commitment for the 2026 recruiting cycle on Saturday, as four-star cornerback Jamarrion Gordon announced his decision to join the Crimson Tide. The standout player from Jackson High School in Alabama visited Tuscaloosa in April, received an offer from the coaching staff, and made his commitment just over a month later.
Explaining his choice, Gordon emphasized the strong connection he felt with the coaches and the positive relationship they established with his family. He cited Alabama’s winning tradition and the impressive new coaching staff as key factors in his decision.
Ranked as the No. 17 safety in the nation and the No. 186 overall player according to the 247Sports Composite, Gordon is also considered the No. 10 prospect in the state of Alabama.
