Transfer to Alabama QB reassures Tide supporters in the wake of Ryan Grubb’s resignation………

Kalen DeBoer, the new head coach, received some parting gifts from Nick Saban, including the No. 2 signing class in 2024. The group

includes Ryan Williams, a five-star receiver whom both coaches helped sign, and three five-star cornerbacks.

Alabama added two more running backs, bolstered the secondary, and added a few more important players. Additionally, DeBoer

brought three transfers from Washington with him.

Right now, the entire focus is on reconstructing the 2025 class. The personnel visited recruits across the nation in January and made

multiple offers and re-offers to 2025 prospects.

Junior Day in Alabama has received mostly positive reviews. Numerous prospects for 2025 stated that DeBoer and the new team

performed an excellent job of recruiting in the short time left before the deadline. With just two commitments, Alabama’s 2025 class is

currently ranked 32nd overall.

Over the weekend, we had the opportunity to watch sophomore athlete Samu Moala of Lawndale (Calif.) Leuzinger in action, and he

once again demonstrated why he is one of the country’s best prospects.

Moala plays tight end and linebacker now and is excellent at both positions; he will probably develop into an edge in college. Since his

freshman year, he has established himself as Leuzinger’s dominant interior presence and will start for the next four years.

Over the weekend, Moala stated, “I like playing inside ‘backer because I can play in the box and make plays sideline to sideline.”

Although I enjoy playing this position, I believe there’s a strong chance I’ll develop into an edge rusher in college, and I’m okay with

that.

I currently weigh 225 pounds and am 6-4, but I don’t think I’m done growing. Because I really enjoy playing tight end, I’ll play

anywhere I’m needed to get on the field.

Moala placed among our Top Performers in the 7v7 Showdown Series competition. After the event, this is how we assessed him:

There might not have been a greater opportunity than Moala in terms of high end upside. Although he was a tight end and inside

linebacker in college, we still think he’s a good edge rusher. Despite being only 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, he has a lot of mobility and is

at ease in a large area. Players with his size and length simply don’t often have the ability to sprint down the field and

“I want to get to USC again for sure,” Moala said. “I also want to visit Texas and then go to the South and check out Georgia, Alabama

and Auburn. 

“I would say the schools recruiting me the hardest right now are USC, Miami, Ohio State and Oregon and I have interest in all of those

programs too.”

Moala said he’s already made a connection with the new USC defensive staff. 

“I’ve been up there a few times and already feel comfortable with the staff,” Moala said. “They’re very genuine guys, very cool and easy

to talk with. 

“I’ve talked with coach (Matt) Entz, the LB coach and also coach (D’Anton) Lynn, the new DC. They really know football, are good guys

and check in on me all the time so I’m excited to continue to build that with them.”

Oregon is another school making a good impression. 

“I went there once before, but it was in the eighth grade,” Moala remarked. “I’m eager to see the school and get to know all the

coaches, so I’m really working on a date to travel there this spring.

Although I also really enjoyed Washington, that staff is currently at Alabama. After speaking with Courtney Morgan, they would like

me to pay them a visit, and I would be happy to do so. I’ve spoken with coach Sark (Steve Sarkisian) and a couple other defensive

coaches, so I’m excited to see them as well. I also enjoy Texas.”

Moala is presently ranked No. 51 among players in the country by Top247. He declared that he is not in a hurry to decide.

“I considered starting it early,
