1. Blake Barnett, Notre Dame to Alabama
Barnett came to the Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge presented by Under Armour this past summer in Baltimore and it looked like a flip from Notre Dame to Oregon was in store. He even said as much during interviews and hinted that it could be coming days after the event. He was all but locked in with the Ducks. But then a last-second trip to Alabama changed all that, and he picked the Crimson Tide shortly after his trip. Since then, Barnett has been happy with his pledge. He's taken multiple visits to Tuscaloosa and sees an opportunity with the Crimson Tide. The offense will have to change for Barnett to maximize his abilities but Nick Saban and Lane Kiffin have a plan and Barnett has bought in.

3. Johnathan Ledbetter, Alabama to Georgia
It's not too often that a Rivals100 prospect decommits from Alabama of his own accord, but that's exactly what Ledbetter did last year. The 6-foot-3, 275-pound prospect blew up following a dominant performance at the Under Armour combine and committed to Alabama shortly thereafter. But Georgia, the SEC program closest to his Atlanta-area home, didn't give up. After Ledbetter's older brother transferred to Georgia during the offseason, it was only a matter of time before the younger Ledbetter flipped from Alabama to the Dawgs. No matter how it happened, the Rivals100 prospect is on campus in Athens already and could be a contributor as early as next season.
