Meet the top uncommitted 2021 football prospects in the state of Alabama - AL.com

Six of the top 10 prospects in the latest 247 composite rankings for the Alabama class of 2021 already have committed.

They are No. 2 Dylan Brooks (Tennessee), No. 3 Lee Hunter (Auburn), No. 4 Armoni Goodwin (Auburn), No. 6 Deontae Lawson (Alabama), No. 8 Ian Jackson (Alabama) and No. 9 Jordan Mosley (Tennessee).

However, the state still has many uncommitted prospects in the rising senior class, including top prospect Ga’Quincy McKinstry of Pinson Valley.

Sports Illustrated Director of All-American Football John Garcia Jr. said recently the Class of 2021 is another good group for Alabama.

“It will be another group that pushes 50-70 FBS signees,” he said. “For a state like Alabama, population wise, that is about as good as it gets. That locks you in as a top 10 state nationally without much debate.”

Here is a look at some of the state’s top uncommitted prospects in the Class of 2021.
