How Alabama Outran Ohio State, LSU, and Michigan to Land 2027’s Elite 4-Star RB Recruit
Alabama football started Sunday by losing a cornerback commit to rival Auburn. But head coach Kalen DeBoer and company made up for it right away: Landing four-star running back Nigel Newkirk and beating Ohio State, LSU and Michigan for him.
The 2027 standout from Gainesville, Florida confirmed the commitment decision via Hayes Fawcett of On3/Rivals. He boasted “I’ve been an elephant” in his message.
DeBoer lands a massive College Football Recruiting win here. Not just limited to beating the likes of the Buckeyes, Wolverines and rival Tigers either. Newkirk arrives to Tuscaloosa as the nation’s No. 6 running back. ‘Bama running backs coach Robert Gillespie assisted DeBoer in landing this commitment out of Gainesville High.
