The Alabama Crimson Tide coaching staff rounds out what has been a huge month of recruiting this weekend. A month long dead period awaits a staff that has been going all out establishing the foundations of the program since being hired in January, but first the weekend must be maximized.

It may be an understatement to say it's been maximized as the final official visitor weekend has a dozen prospects coming to Tuscaloosa according to On3 Sports. Alabama will host three Class of 2025 commits along with nine other prospects, including three 5-star players.

The official visitor weekends have yielded outstanding results already for the staff as they've added seven commitments in the Class of 2025 in the month of June. There's heavy speculation that this weekend will continue to add quality players into a recruiting class that's risen to No. 3 in the nation and the best in the SEC according to 247Sports.
