The Alabama coaching staff has made it a priority to target recruits from coast to coast over the years. They have done a fair job at landing several of them as well. Recently, the Tide offered 2024 defensive back Dakoda Fields out of Gardena, California.
Fields has a great frame at 6-foot-3, 175 pounds. In years past, Alabama has lacked some size at the cornerback position and Fields could add some versatility and size to the Tide’s secondary.
It will not be easy for the Alabama coaching staff to pry him away from schools on the West coast. Programs like USC, UCLA, and Oregon have all offered him. At this time, the Trojans appear to be the favorite to land Fields. According to On3’s RPM, the Trojans have the best chance to land his commitment at 54.1% likelihood.
