The Alabama Crimson Tide have landed a commitment from Stevan Thornton III, he announced on social media.

Thornton is a member of the 2027 recruiting cycle who currently ranks as the nation’s No. 812 overall player in the nation, per the 247Sports Composite rankings. A three-star recruit, Thornton is also ranked as the nation’s No. 64 overall edge rusher, as well as the No. 95 prospect in the state of Georgia where he is entering his senior season at Cairo High School.

Following the decision from Thornton, Alabama‘s 2027 class now has five total commitments.

Thornton is also the second defensive lineman in the class alongside in-state prospect Avrian Pauley. Pauley joined the Crimson Tide’s class earlier this month when he committed to the Crimson Tide.
