Alabama Extends Offer to Butte LB Cade Thompson
The University of Alabama has extended a scholarship offer to Butte Bulldogs linebacker Cade Thompson, a rising senior in the Class of 2026. Thompson, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound defender, has been making waves in the prep football scene with his impressive on-field performance. He recorded 104 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, and 5 sacks last season, helping the Bulldogs secure a 7-3 record. Thompson's offer list already includes notable programs like Oregon and Washington State. The talented linebacker is expected to attend the Alabama summer camp in July, where he will have the opportunity to showcase his skills in front of the Crimson Tide coaching staff. Thompson's recruiting timeline is heating up, with a decision expected in the fall of 2026, just before the early signing period.
