Four-star outside linebacker Quandarrius Robinson, the No. 1 player in the state of Alabama, has committed to the Crimson Tide on an unofficial visit to Tuscaloosa, his head coach Tim Vakakes confirms to BamaOnLine.

The Birmingham (Ala.) Jackson-Olin product is commitment No. 20 for Alabama in the 2020 cycle.

The one-time Auburn commit chose UA over the Tigers along with Kentucky, Nebraska and Tennessee, among others.

“People say that Bama’s like a factory, or like a business,” he told BOL earlier this spring. “They’re trying to change the culture there. They think I can help along with other guys that are committed.”

Tide assistant Karl Scott is the area recruiter for Birmingham. He along with new assistant Sal Sunseri joined together to land the elite outside linebacker.

The latter recruited Robinson at Florida, and was a welcome addition by the four-star 'backer when he arrived in Tuscaloosa.

“The knowledge,” Robinson said when describing Sunseri. “He’s a cool guy. He can be your best friend, your dad, your grandpa all at once. He’s just a cool guy, a guy you want to be around all the time … except for when you mess up at practice, then you might want to run away.”

The 6-foot-4.5, 217-pounder is ranked the No. 5 outside linebacker and the No. 53 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Here's 247Sports' evaluation of the in-state talent:

"You can’t teach 6-4 with great length. Has gone from a high school safety to a defensive end from sophomore to junior year. Still evolving on the edge, but he’s explosive. A good athlete, he is a pass rusher learning to put his hand on the ground on the prep level. Probably projects better as a standup outside linebacker that can blitz but also be a presence dropping in coverage. Continuing to add weight and strength will obviously be important. The skill set is there to be one of the best outside linebacker/weak-side defensive ends in the country. Should be an impact Power 5 starter and a future NFL Draft selection."
