Future members of Alabama’s football program are gearing up to take the field one final time before officially making the move to Tuscaloosa.

On Thursday afternoon, four Bama signees will play at Spec Martin Stadium in DeLand, Florida, in the annual Under Armour All-America Game. Five-Star Plus+ quarterback Keelon Russell, five-star cornerback Dijon Lee, four-star offensive lineman Micah DeBose, and four-star tight end Marshall Pritchett will play in today’s all-star game.

All four Bama signees will be in Tuscaloosa for the official beginning of their collegiate careers on Monday, Jan. 6. Pritchett got a little bit of a head start as he was in T-Town for bowl prep, though he did not travel with the team to Tampa.
