Who are Alabama’s top 2024 uncommitted players heading into August?
The month of July was a great one for Auburn on the recruiting trail.
The Tigers landed six 2024 commits during the month, with five of those hailing from the state of Alabama. As the calendar turns to August, Auburn has claimed nine of the state’s top 25 prospects and 10 of the top 30.
Among their July haul was No. 4 Demarcus Riddick, a five-star linebacker from Chilton County, and No. 3 Perry Thompson, a five-star wide receiver from Foley. Before last week’s “flips”, Auburn’s highest-rated commit from the state of Alabama was No. 8 Joseph Phillips, a four-star linebacker from Tuskegee.
As the calendar turns to August, Auburn is in the hunt for several other of the state’s top talent. There are five players in the top 25 that remain uncommitted, and Auburn has a chance to land three of them. Of those three are linebacker Bradley Shaw from Hoover and four-star wide receiver Mario Craver from Clay-Chalkville.
Here is a look at the state of Alabama’s top uncommitted players from the 2024 recruiting cycle according to rankings 247Sports, and data from On3‘s Recruiting Prediction Machine.

One ball player who really impressed me during my national travels is Bradley Shaw 6‘1“ 215 Hoover HS, AL. A linebacker who is in on just about every play. Great range, excels in space and can hit. Quick twitch athlete and a 4*+ talent. One of the favorites for the Butkus award. pic.twitter.com/8gfFrtPPjQ
