While some of Alabama's commitments are still facing scheduling changes following Hurricane Irma, the majority of the Tide's future played over the weekend, including a new addition to the list in Vernon Jackson.

Here's a look at how they, or in the case no statistics have been provided, their team performed.

2018

Stephon Wynn, DE, Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy -- The 2-0 No. 1-ranked Ascenders' game against St. John's College (Md.) was cancelled due to the after-effects of Hurricane Irma.

Jalyn Armour-Davis, CB, Mobile (Ala.) St. Paul's Episcopal -- The Saints moved to 3-0 on the season after a 9-6 win over Williamson. Armour-Davis injured his knee in the first quarter. There's no word on the severity of the injury at this point, however, AL.com reported that, according to Saints head coach Steve Mask, it's not expected to be season-ending.

Cameron Latu, DE, Salt Lake City (Utah) Olympus -- The Titans moved to 3-2 on the season with a 45-42 win at West. Latu hauled in a 69-yard touchdown catch in the victory.

Jordan Davis, LB, Memphis (Tenn.) Southwind -- The Jaguars moved to 4-1 on the season with a 42-0 shutout of Overton. Davis complied nine tackles, including three sacks, three tackles for a loss, and one forced fumble. 

Vernon Jackson, ATH/LB, Boling (Texas) -- The Bulldogs lost their season-opener 49-14 at Halletsville. Jackson managed to run for one touchdown in the second half, and played safety and a little bit of H-back in the loss.

Slade Bolden, APB, West Monroe (La.) -- The Rebels moved to 3-0 with a 50-12 win against Wossman. Bolden threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in the victory.

Alabama remains in the hunt for the nation's top slot receiver, Jaylen Waddle, who announced his top six on Sunday night.

Along with the Crimson Tide, Florida State, Oregon, TCU, Texas, and Texas A&M made the cut for the Bellaire (Texas) Episcopal product.

Waddle emerged as a top target for the UA staff heading into the summer, only to solidify his standing after two stellar camp performances in June and July.

Last month, the four-star receiver caught up with BamaOnLine following is return from Tuscaloosa.

“The competition, that was my favorite part out there," Waddle said. "It was different, way different. I liked how the Bama guys held each other accountable."

Tide wide receivers coach Mike Locksley watched Waddle play on Friday night. Alabama also had the 5-foot-9.5, 175-pounder in attendance for its season-opener against FSU.

Waddle told BamaOnLine last month that the Tide would receive an official visit, the date of which has yet to be set.

The U.S. Army All-American is rated the No. 11 receiver and the No. 67 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite.

The Crystal Ball currently reads in favor of Alabama at 33 percent.
