Nick Saban’s retirement could lead to one of the top recruits in Alabama’s 2024 class leaving before he plays a game for the football team.
Per ESPN’s Pete Thamel, freshman quarterback Julian Sayin intends to enter the transfer portal because he originally committed to the program “to play for Saban” and wants to explore his options now.
Sayin is a 5-star prospect and the No. 1 quarterback in the 2024 recruiting class, per 247Sports’ composite rankings.
Sayin was an early commit to the Crimson Tide in November 2022 after taking an official visit to Tuscaloosa.
“You think of the consistency, the standard,” Sayin told Chad Simmons of On3.com. “The track record with quarterbacks, with winning games, draft picks, it’s the standard of college football.”
