SEC Football: 3 biggest winners from Early Signing Day
By Matt Melton
1. Alabama Crimson Tide
The third, and final, winner from Early Signing Day was also arguably the biggest in the Alabama Crimson Tide, who had three notable takeaways from Wednesday, two of which were flips.
Those two flips came via a pair of four-star prospects, with arguably the biggest being that of Kevin Riley. Riley, who is one of the nation's top running backs out of in-state Tuscaloosa County High School in Alabama, is rated as a four-star prospect, and flipped his commitment from Miami where he had been previously committed since June of 2023.
Alabama's second flip of Early Signing Day came from Aeryn Hampton, who flipped to the Crimson Tide from Texas. Hampton, who had previosuly been committed to the Longhorns since July of 2023, is a four-star athlete out of Daingerfield High School in Texas.
Alabama's third takeaway would be a commitment from Steve Mboumoua, who entered the day uncommitted. Mboumoua is rated as a four-star defensive lineman out of Notre Dame de Foy in Canada.
