Five-star quarterback Elijah Haven, widely regarded as the No. 1 quarterback in the 2027 recruiting class, has officially committed to Alabama, choosing the Crimson Tide over the Georgia Bulldogs and several other national powers.
Haven made his announcement on Saturday morning, giving Alabama a foundational piece for its future and a major win in a head-to-head battle with one of its biggest SEC rivals.

Landing the nation’s top quarterback is always significant, but this one feels even bigger.
Haven is viewed by many as a true program-changing quarterback prospect. With elite arm talent and the ability to extend plays, he has all the tools to develop into a star at the college level and beyond.
For Alabama, this commitment immediately elevates the trajectory of its 2027 recruiting class and gives the program a centerpiece to build around.
Head coach Kalen DeBoer has made a strong impression on quarterback recruits with his offensive system and track record of development.
His quarterback-friendly approach and emphasis on the passing game played a major role in Haven’s decision.
This type of vision for his quarterbacks has led to Alabama now landing a five-star quarterback in three straight recruiting classes.
In the 2025 class, Alabama landed Keelon Russell. In 2026, it was Jett Thomalla, and now Elijah Haven for the class of 2027.
Beating Georgia for the No. 1 quarterback in the country sends a strong message.
Even in a new era, Alabama continues to recruit at an elite level and win battles against the nation’s top programs.
With Haven now in the fold, the Crimson Tide have taken a major step toward building the future of the program.
