Allen quarterback Alec Morris gave his verbal commitment to Alabama over the weekend, rescinding his previous commitment to Wake Forest.

Morris received Alabama's scholarship offer after he had already committed to Wake Forest but had always had the Crimson Tide on the top of his list, Allen head coach Tom Westerberg said.

His change of direction was very quick, having given his commitment to the Demon Deacons just a couple of weeks prior to his change to Alabama.

Morris threw for 2,533 yards and 22 touchdowns as a junior in his first year as a starter and rushed for 216 yards and eight TDs.

In addition to Alabama and Wake, Morris had received an offer from North Texas and had considered Rice.
