Alabama flipped ESPN 300 athlete Drew Sanders from Oklahoma on Monday.
Sanders, the No. 37 ranked recruit in the 2020 class, had been committed to Oklahoma since 2017, but announced his decision to switch to Alabama.
Sanders is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound recruit from Billy Ryan high school in Denton, Texas, and is ranked as the No. 4 athlete in the class.
Despite being committed to Oklahoma, Sanders had been visiting other programs and weighing his options throughout his recruitment. He had taken visits to Alabama, Texas A&M and LSU among others.

LSU was involved in trying to flip Sanders, but ultimately Alabama won out and flipped the Texas prospect.
With Sanders on board, Alabama now has 13 ESPN 300 commitments, which is the most of any program in this recruiting class. He is the second commitment for the Crimson Tide ranked in the top 50, joining five-star defensive end Chris Braswell, who is the No. 5 ranked recruit.
