The Alabama Crimson Tide got off to a slow start in their 2019 recruiting pursuits, but they’ve been hot lately, storming back to claim the nation’s No. 1 overall class.

On Wednesday, coach Nick Saban and his staff were at it again, adding another elite player to the group.

According to his 247Sports profile page, 4-star 2019 DT DJ Dale has pledged his commitment to the Crimson Tide, with Alabama beating out Clemson, Auburn, Tennessee and Florida State for his services.

Per the 247Sports composite, Dale is the No. 15 defensive tackle in the class of 2019 and the No. 10 overall recruit from the state of Alabama.

Now, the Crimson Tide have 12 players in their 2019 class, all of whom are at least 4-star recruits. The class ranks No. 1 nationally and No. 1 in the SEC, per 247Sports.
