Alabama Lands Versatile Star Dustin Henry
About this episode
Alabama's 2028 recruiting class strengthens with the commitment of versatile linebacker Dustin Henry.
Alabama’s 2028 recruiting class just got a massive boost with the commitment of four-star linebacker Dustin Henry, who reclassified to join early instead of waiting until 2029. Standing at six-foot-four and hailing from the same elite high school that produced Jireh Edwards, Henry brings rare versatility—able to play linebacker and cover receivers like a nickelback—perfect for Alabama’s defensive scheme. He’s expected to compete for the coveted “Husky” role, which demands both run-stopping power and pass-rushing agility. This addition follows the recent landing of quarterback Charles Scott, underscoring Alabama’s aggressive recruiting strategy. Henry, who also held offers from Oregon, UCLA, and Maryland, chose the Tide after they made a compelling case, proving Alabama isn’t just chasing talent—they’re building a dominant future.
