Alabama football’s five-star quarterback commit, Keelon Russell, says he already feels like QB1 when he’s in touch with the Crimson Tide coaching staff.
Recently appearing on *The Momentum Podcast* on YouTube, Russell discussed his decision to commit to Alabama and shared insights into his current interactions with the staff. “The first time I talked to Coach DeBoer, I saw what he did with Penix at Washington, along with Nick Sheridan, the offensive coordinator,” Russell said. “I thought, ‘These guys are going to make me great with my talents, make me an amazing, skilled quarterback.’ I believe they offer the highest level of coaching. I’m going to fit in well with this program, doing what I have to do. When Coach Sheridan and I share film, it’s a natural flow. I feel like QB1 already. Like, Jalen Milroe, you’re at the gate; Keelon Russell is in. That’s really how I feel when I’m on the phone with them.”
Meanwhile, Russell is working to lead Duncanville High School to another state championship.
