Alabama working to flip Michigan Football's top 2025 commit

In this story:
The Michigan Wolverines got a huge boost to their 2025 recruiting class over the summer when they flipped four-star cornerback Ivan Taylor from Notre Dame. According to 247 Sports, Taylor is the No. 2 overall safety in the nation, as well as the No. 41 overall rated recruit nationally.
Although he seemed solid in his commitment to Michigan after flipping, that hasn't stopped other major programs from pursuing the top rated corner - including Alabama. In fact, the Crimson Tide are reportedly working very hard to flip the current Michigan commit.
