4-Star ATH Jacob Eberhart Names Alabama in Top Schools

247Sports' composite ranking places Eberhart as the No. 18 athlete prospect in the nation and the No. 4 player in the Show Me State. He picked up his scholarship offer from the Crimson Tide on May 8th, but has yet to lineup an official visit.

Eberhart is a dynamic athlete with the skill set to play on both offense and defense. He stands at 6-foot-3, 200 lbs. and is able to use his frame to not only haul in contested catches, but cause trouble for opposing wideouts when he lines up at defensive back.

As a junior in 2024, he hauled in 42 receptions for 795 yards and 15 touchdowns while also snagging three interceptions on the defensive end. Though he likely projects more as a wide receiver at the next level, Eberhart's ability is undeniable.

As of now, Alabama holds five commitments in the 2026 recruiting class, and is set to welcome a massive crop of talented prospects on official visits this summer. If DeBoer and his staff can continue to string together success this summer like they have through the spring, Alabama is in an excellent spot for the 2026 cycle.
