Alabama pledge Sterling Dixon on red-hot safety prospect Cameron Pruitt: 'I will bring him home'

Class of 2024 Mobile Christian (Alabama) edge-rusher Sterling Dixon can't officially sign with the Alabama Crimson Tide until next December.

Rated a four-star prospect nation's No. 17 edge-rusher, Dixon committed to Nick Saban's program late last year, choosing the Crimson Tide over offers from Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oregon, Texas A&M, USC and many others.

Now, he's becoming an active recruiter.

Shortly after Theodore (Alabama) safety Cameron Pruitt received an offer from Alabama, Dixon promised to deliver the fast-rising defender - and his cousin - to Tuscaloosa. 

"Alabama fans I will bring him home," he posted to social media.

Pruitt, a versatile 6-foot-3, 190-pound defender, doesn't yet have a star rating on 247Sports, but has seen his stock skyrocket in recent weeks, as he's added offers from Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia Tech, Memphis, Miami, Mississippi State, Missouri, Ole Miss, Purdue, Texas A&M and many others.

Given that Dixon and Pruitt are cousins and both live in the state of Alabama, it seems the Crimson Tide may have the inside track for the Theodore star.

But it's too early to say for certain.

Well, unless you're Dixon, who appears confident he can deliver one of the nation's hottest prospects to Tuscaloosa.
