Sophomore Alabama cornerback Marcus Banks was a 2019 four-star recruit out of Houston when he committed to play for the Crimson Tide. In only a season and a half with the program, Banks totaled eight tackles and an interception.
On Nov. 8, Banks entered the NCAA Transfer Portal.
Experts predicted him to land in South Florida and join former Oregon head coach Mario Cristobal down in Coral Gables, Florida at the University of Miami.
However, in a late-night announcement, Banks shocked many by sharing to Twitter a jersey swap of himself in a Mississippi State Bulldogs uniform with the caption “Done deal.”
