Kalen DeBoer has been a slow starter on the recruiting trail through his first two seasons at Alabama. However, this year, he’s made significant headway in the 2027 class, adding his fourth commit, three-star tight end Colt Lumpris, on Wednesday.
With the 6-foot-6 New Jersey native in tow, the 2027 class currently ranks 11th-best in the country. After choosing the Crimson Tide over Tennessee, Ohio State, Penn State, and others, Lumpris gave a quote that should have DeBoer’s staff confident that he’ll stick with the program through next year’s signing day.
“I went on my visit to Alabama last year, and as soon as I got there, it felt like home,” Lumpris told Brett Greenberg of Bama247.
