re: Class of 2019 Recruiting MEGATHREAD: That's a Wrap Edition

Alabama will look to wrap up its 2019, No. 1-ranked recruiting class with a bang on Wednesday as several targets and commitments are set to make it official with their schools of choice.

The Crimson Tide signed 24 of its commitments in the Early Signing Period, leaving room for roughly five additional signees come National Signing Day. Bama currently has four commitments that are unsigned, but if you've been tracking the class over the course of the last month or so, you'd know that number is really three.

Will they hold onto their trio of commitments? Who will join the class that is currently uncommitted? That all remains to be seen at this time -- of course if you've kept up with BOL Nuggets (VIP) this week you'd have an idea of where things currently stand, though.

Here, BamaOnLine breaks down the announcement schedule for the Crimson Tide's targets and commitments on Wednesday.

* Not every announcement time is locked in at this point. We will revise this list accordingly through the coming days. *

JERRION EALY, 5-STAR RB, FLOWOOD (MS) JACKSON PREP -- 11:15 A.M. CT ON ESPN2

Alabama is making a move for the 5-star ball carrier from Mississippi after signing the nation's No. 1 running in Trey Sanders and holding a commitment from 4-star ball carrier Keilan Robinson. Clemson was thought to be the favorite into the weekend along with Ole Miss near the top. Nick Saban is getting the last visit from the nation's No. 3 running back and can certainly sway momentum in favor of the Tide. Whoever lands Ealy on Wednesday will have to wait and see whether the elite baseball prospect opts to go to the MLB this summer instead of playing college football.

QUASHON FULLER, 4-STAR SDE, LEHIGH ACRES (FLA.) SENIOR -- FSU COMMIT -- 12 P.M. CT

Will the longtime Seminoles pledge stick with his commitment? Nick Saban and company are hosting him this weekend and have given him a lot of think about. The 4-star defensive lineman will sign with either Florida State, Florida or Alabama on Wednesday.

ISHMAEL SOPSHER, 4-STAR DT, AMITE (LA.) -- 12:45 P.M. CT ON ESPN2

The nation's top unsigned defensive lineman is expected to announce his final decision on Wednesday afternoon. As for where he'll commit to and sign with, it depends on who you ask. Alabama and LSU are battling back and forth for the Under Armour All-American. The Tide got him on campus last weekend; the Tigers are hosting him this weekend. Texas A&M, too, is remaining in the picture.

JAVONNE SHEPHERD, 4-STAR OT, HOUSTON (TEXAS) NORTH FOREST -- TEXAS COMMIT -- 1 P.M. CT

Alabama appeared to be done recruiting offensive linemen after the Early Signing Period, but has since pursued Shepherd as have schools like Georgia and Texas A&M. The 4-star lineman is in Austin this weekend as the Longhorns are trying to hold onto his commitment. The Aggies and the Tide are making them work for it, though.

KEILAN ROBINSON, 4-STAR RB, WASHINGTON (D.C.) ST. JOHN'S -- ALABAMA COMMIT -- 1:30 P.M. CT

The 4-star running back didn't sign with the Crimson Tide early despite being committed, leading many theories to be tossed around about his status. Robinson's primary recruiter Mike Locksley left for Maryland back in December, and despite speculation that he could reopen his recruitment, Robinson maintained his commitment throughout. A last-minute visit to USC this past weekend raised some eyebrows, but it appears as though Robinson will make it official with the Tide on Wednesday.

HENRY TO'OTO'O, 4-STAR LB, CONCORD (CALIF.) DE LA SALLE
2 P.M. CT HOUR ON ESPNU

Alabama, Washington, and Tennessee are all vying for the All-American linebacker. Despite rated on the outside, the Crimson Tide staff projects To'oto'o on the inside -- a major position of need in 2019. The Tide currently leads the 247Sports Crystal Ball.
