4-star Michigan State commit gives concerning update on his Alabama interest

Jonathan Smith might be in danger of losing another key 2026 class commit. The second-year Michigan State football coach is not only on the hot seat, but he's lost two key commits in the 2026 class already in Braylon Hodge and Tyren Wortham, two four-stars.

Now, it sounds like Smith could be on the verge of losing a third.

Samson Gash, a four-star wide receiver from Novi, Mich., has been in constant contact with another program, and he has an official visit scheduled for Nov. 8.

The program? Alabama.

Gash gave a rather concerning recruiting update this week, telling On3 that he's been hearing from Alabama essentially every day and the relationship is great because they're "true to their word".
