Alabama Lands in Final Schools for 4-Star Linebacker

Morris is ranked by On3 as the No. 24 player in the Sunshine state and the No. 10 linebacker in the nation. He stands at 6-foot-1, 225 lbs., and is an agressive run stopper with his ability to quickly diagnose plays and get downhill.

Despite being recruited mostly as a defender, Morris plays on both sides of the ball for Lakeland High School. In 2024, as a junior, he compiled an impressive 31 total tackles, 3.0 TFL's and a sack to go along with over 150 all-purpose yards and five scores.

He was named the "Big Schools Defensive Player of the Year," by The Ledger following his impressive junior campaign.

Morris received his scholarship offer from the Crimson Tide in May of 2024, but has yet to make a trip to Tuscaloosa. He does has other visits lined up this summer with three of his six finalists: Miami (May 30), Texas A&M (June 6) and Florida (June 13).

As of now, Alabama holds five commitments in the 2026 recruiting class, but has yet to land a linebacker prospect. If DeBoer and the staff manage to earn the commitment from Morris, it could be a major boost to what is already shaping up to be a strong class.
