WATCH: Alabama 2024 QB commit Julian Sayin has strong showing at Battle Miami

Alabama fans will be excited to have this guy wearing Crimson and White!

The future at quarterback in Tuscaloosa appears very bright. And I am not just talking about Jalen Milroe, Ty Simpson, Eli Holstein or Dylan Lonergan either.

Class of 2024 quarterback commit Julian Sayin recently attended a 7-on-7 camp in Miami and was without a doubt the top performer at the camp. Sayin took home the camp MVP according to On3’s Sam Spiegelman.

It was noted that Sayin showed up to the camp visibly bigger than anticipated. On3’s profile has Sayin listed as 6 feet, 1 inch and 185 pounds, but after seeing him in person, many believe Sayin is approaching 6 feet, 3 inches and 190 pounds.

The good news doesn’t end there either. Sayin put on a show, displaying his quick release and pinpoint accuracy throughout the competition.

Here are several clips from Sayin slinging it in South Beach.

Miami among schools trying to flip Ohio State commit Jeremiah Smith

One of the biggest draws of Battle Miami was Chaminade-Madonna (Fla.) five-star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith.

We’ve reached the All-Star games phase at the tail end of the 2022-23 season. This past weekend some of the nation’s top high school football players participated in the Polynesian Bowl, as well as Battle Miami.

Just as the players attempt to boost their stock, colleges around the country are competing with each other at these events for a chance to get their preferred recruits’ commitments.

One of the biggest draws of Battle Miami was Chaminade-Madonna (Fla.) five-star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, who committed to Ohio State in mid-December. That’s not stopping several other programs from trying to flip him, though. According to On3, Miami, Florida, Florida State and Tennessee are all trying to get Smith to abandon the Buckeyes, but he’s “solid” for now.

Smith (6-foot-3, 185 pounds) helped boost his case for deserving the title of the No. 1 ranked wide receiver in the class of 2024, including this remarkable one-handed catch:

And this touchdown:

According to 247Sports, Smith has 39 total offers to choose from. In addition to being the top-ranked receiver, he’s No. 2 overall in his class.
