One of the key moments in Alabama's massive summer recruiting run was the flip of Iowa State 4-star QB Jett Thomalla in June. Thomalla may not be the highest-ranked prospect in the Tide's impressive 2026 class, but he filled a major need as Kalen DeBoer and company finally found their QB in the class after months of searching.
Thomalla is currently ranked as the No. 232 overall player in the 247 composite, but could see his stock steadily rise in the coming months. Thomalla is coming off an incredible junior season at Millard South in Nebraska and was impressive at the Elite 11 last month, right after flipping to the Crimson Tide.
