Alabama football 2025 season preview, predictions: Arkel Anugwom
An offseason transfer portal addition, Anugwom is one-of-multiple new faces to the Alabama offensive line unit this season, one that is expected to be among the best in all of college football.
However, just how much could we see of Anugwom this season, a player who has not played much across the past two seasons at his previous school?
Here is a look at everything you need to know about Alabama offensive lineman Arkel Anugwom entering year one in Tuscaloosa this fall.
Arkel Anugwom player information
Arkel Anugwom career stats
While the offensive lineman is new to Alabama this season, Anugwom is a familiar face to college football, as he originally began his collegiate career at Ball State. However, Anugwom did not necessarily play much with the Cardinals, appearing in only four games across the 2023-24 seasons.
Arkel Anugwom 2024 stats
As a redshirt freshman last season at Ball State, Anugwom saw action in only four games at left tackle. This was the first action for Anugwom at the collegiate level, as the offensive lineman redshirted back in 2023 after not appearing in a game.
Arkel Anugwom recruiting ranking
Coming out of the 2023 class, Anugwom, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings, was considered as an unranked prospect nationally out of Antioch High School in Tennessee.
Prior to Alabama, Anugwom was considered as a three-star prospect, as well as the No. 304 overall player in the transfer portal this past cycle, per 247Sports. Anugwom committed to the Crimson Tide back in Jan. 2025 out of the transfer portal.
Arkel Anugwom 2025 season outlook
When it comes to potential playing time for Anugwom during year one in Tuscaloosa, the Ball State transfer is likely set to begin the season as a backup.
Entering fall camp, Alabama's starter at left tackle is set in Kadyn Proctor, while the right side will likely be filled by the returning Wilkin Formby. Because of this, Anugwom is likely cemented as a backup at tackle, but should still be one of the top reserve options available.
Overall, expect the redshirt sophomore to see action in 2025, and for Anugwom to begin emerging as a name to know looking ahead to 2026.

Report: Notre Dame to unofficially host 5-star Penn State commit in hopes of a flip
The recruiting battles between Notre Dame and Penn State continue, and this time it's the Irish attempting to flip a 2027 Nittany Lions commit. Kemon Spell made his verbal to PSU in August of 2024, but according to a report by 247Sports Tom Loy, the 5-foot, 9-inch and 205-pound star running back will make an unofficial trip to South Bend when they host Texas A&M on Sept. 13th. That's not the only visit the country's No. 9 overall prospect according the 247Sports Composite will visit, as trips to see Penn State, Florida State and Alabama will happen during the season as well. The report also states that Spell will try and make it out to a game against Ohio State, all of which means that he most likely could be heading towards flipping to another school. It will be interesting to see how this all plays out, but the Irish would love to have another 5-star prospect entering its program. At the current moment, Notre Dame has three commits in the 2027 class, highlighted by quarterback Teddy Jarrard. We are sure that he'd love to see Spell in the backfield with him in South Bend.

Notre Dame will host in-state 5-star WR for an unofficial visit this fall vs. Texas A&M
While Notre Dame football hasn't had the best luck with some of the in-state wide receiver prospects over the last few classes, but there could be a change coming to that in the 2027 cycle. Monshun Sales is one of the top prospects nationally, not just in Indiana, and on Monday it was reported by On3's Steve Wiltfong (subscription required) that he will make an unofficial visit to South Bend this fall for the contest against Texas A&M. The 6-foot, 5-inch and 195-pound receiver is a 5-star prospect, ranking as the No. 13 overall player in the 2027 class by the 247Sports Composite. The Irish are battling multiple teams for Sales' commitment, as he will also take trips to see Ohio State and Indiana this fall, while other schools like Alabama, LSU, Michigan, the Aggies and Missouri are also recruiting him hard with hopes of setting up a trip to see their campuses. There aren't many in-state prospects that are must-gets for Notre Dame, but in my estimation, Sales is one of them. Hopefully this visit is the start of many more to South Bend, and eventually Sales calls it his home for multiple seasons.

Former Alabama guard reportedly signs two-way contract with NBA team
Only days after being waived by the Boston Celtics, former Alabama Crimson Tide basketball standout JD Davison has now reportedly found a new home in the NBA. According to a report Saturday from NBA insider Chris Haynes, Davison has signed with the Houston Rockets. The Rockets also later announced the signing Sunday, along with the news that Davison has signed a two-way contract. A member of Boston's 2024 NBA championship-winning team, Davison has spent each of the past three seasons in the Celtics organization, with a majority of the time coming in the NBA G League. With Boston, Davison appeared in only 36 games during that span where he averaged 1.9 points per game on 38.5% shooting from the field. Davison, a former second round pick from the 2022 NBA draft, is also coming off a career-year in which he won the 2024-25 NBA G League MVP award, and now heads to Houston where the former Alabama guard joins yet another NBA title contender.
