Elbert Hill earned an offer from Alabama football Saturday after camping under the Crimson Tide’s coaching staff.

Hill is a product of Archbishop Hoban High School in Akron, Ohio, and he is currently a consensus 2026 four-star recruit. He now holds more than 25 offers with offers from Michigan, Ohio State and others.

The Ohio product is grateful to hold an offer from Alabama.

“This offer means a lot to me and shows me what I’m capable of, and I can compete on the next level,” Hill told Touchdown Alabama. “It’s a great program, one of the top programs in the SEC and they produced a lot of great cornerbacks.”

Kalen DeBoer met Hill during his visit.

“It was great just meeting the new head coach at Alabama and starting a relationship with him,” Hill said.

The 5-foot-10, 170-punder made his presence felt last season with seven interceptions, including two pick-sixes to go along with 10 pass breakups. He was also a dynamic returner on special teams.

Alabama linebacker unveils the Crimson Tide’s ultimate goal for the coming season

The defense for Alabama football has returned to being a group with something to prove.

Kevin Steele performed his responsibility in one season, getting Alabama to play physical, fast, and fundamentally sound. The South Carolina native propelled the Tide to a Southeastern Conference Championship and a berth in the College Football Playoff. Kane Wommack, a former head coach at South Alabama, replaces Steele in his retirement.

Wommack inherits a defense that has a bad taste in its mouth after losing to Michigan at the Rose Bowl in overtime. Alabama wants to be a feared group again, and a veteran linebacker unveiled the ultimate goal for this team in the fall. Jihaad Campbell, a New Jersey native, is all in on a national championship.
