Sophomore running back attracting major attention after moving from Texas to Alabama

Zyien Dupree made his way to the University of Alabama for an unofficial visit after recently moving to Alabama.

Dupree now attends Gaston High School in Gadsden, Alabama, after transferring from Lake Belton High School in Texas. He already holds offers from Pitt and SMU, and he is a member of the 2028 recruiting class.

The sophomore was in attendance for the Crimson Tide’s first scrimmage of the spring, and it gave him a detailed look at the Alabama program.

“It was a great visit,” Dupree said. “The University of Alabama showed me what their program is about: discipline, development and competing at the highest level. It’s definitely a place I’m interested in.”

The Auburn Tigers are set to get him on campus on Saturday.

At 6-foot and 210 pounds, Dupree reports a 4.5 40-yard dash, which is great for a player at his size and at his age. He runs the football with great balance, vision and with toughness.
