Alabama, Kalen DeBoer and College Football Playoff

Sherman, a 6-foot-3, 190-pound Tuscaloosa native, joins five-star cornerback Jorden Edmonds and four star Zyan Gibson in Alabama 's 2026 recruiting class. At Itawamba Community College in 2025, Sherman had 24 tackles, one sack and two interceptions.
According to DeBoer’s contract, obtained by AL.com via an open records request, he would be on the hook for a $4 million buyout. That’s a lot of money, but would not be a deterrent to a big-time college football program, which would likely cover the bill if one were to poach DeBoer.
The Alabama Crimson Tide received advice as several of the program's legends pointed out the team's issues before their CFP game.

Hazel Green has hired former Alabama football standout and two-time CFL Grey Cup champion Juwan Simpson to lead its football program. The former Crimson Tide standout will follow Fred Farrier, who spent two seasons as Hazel Green’s head coach.
In the last 65 seasons, the Sooners were only the second non-conference team to knock off Alabama in three consecutive meetings, joining Texas, which beat the Crimson Tide in 1981, 1972 and 1964. Now, OU has a chance to repeat the streak, but this time as part of the SEC and in a do-or-die situation.
