Alabama picks up specialist commitment for 2022 class
Nick Saban and Alabama added to its 2022 recruiting class as a specialist from Tennessee announced his commitment to the Crimson Tide.
Upton Bellenfant, a recruit from Stewarts Creek High School near Nashville, posted on his Twitter account on Thursday evening his decision to play collegiately in Tuscaloosa.
Bellenfant was a part of the prestigious Kohl’s National Scholarship Camp over the summer, with the nationally-recognized kicking academy rating him a 5-star prospect and as the No. 11 kicker in the country.
“His superior leg strength makes him a top prospect. He showed it during the field goals and kickoff charting portions of camp,” his scouting report on the Kohl’s website read. “Bellenfant shows glimpses of great potential as a punter as well.”
