Star linebacker in the 2025 class, announced this week that he is flipping his commitment from Alabama to Nebraska. The No. 4 ranked player in the state of Kansas had been committed to the Crimson Tide since June.

With only a few weeks until early National Signing Day, college football recruiting is heating up once again. Teams are locking in the bulk of their 2025 freshman classes, and some players are reconsidering their original commitments.

The Nebraska football team rarely collects recruiting wins over Alabama. Yet head coach Matt Rhule and company pulled the unimaginable on Thursday: Flipping a Crimson Tide commit to the Cornhuskers. Four-star edge rusher Dawson Merritt pivots to Nebraska after previously committing to Alabama.

The last time a Kalen DeBoer-coached team lost two games by mid-October, his Washington Huskies suddenly went on a tear. DeBoer and No. 9 Alabama would love a similar run of sustained success after a dominant road win over then-No.

Alabama football has its traditional non-conference game before closing out the SEC schedule this week. The Crimson Tide faces Mercer Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium, in a game it will be expected to win handily.

Alabama football head coach Kalen DeBoer got honest on the Crimson Tide's upcoming game against Mercer. The No. 10 ranked team in the country will take on the FCS school after its massive win at LSU.
