Persistence has put Alabama football in a position to land Xavier Griffin.

Griffin is a five-star prospect out of Gainesville High School in Gainesville, Georgia. He is set to choose between Alabama, Florida State, Ohio State and Texas around 1:45 p.m. CST on Sunday.

The Crimson Tide have been making a consistent push to recruit Griffin since March of 2024. The five-star grew up a fan of the Tide in Huntsville, Alabama which made his offer a significant one.

“I’ve always watched them growing up, and I’ve always been an Alabama fan,” Griffin said after earning the offer.
