One of the top safeties in the Yellowhammer State is switching up schools for the 2026 Alabama high school football season.

According to Rivals’ Chad Simmons, 2027 four-star safety Jayden Aparicio-Bailey has transferred from Oak Mountain to Prattville. Aparicio-Bailey is the No. 13 prospect out of Alabama and No. 30 nationally, according to the Rivals Industry Rankings.

Right now, Aparicio-Bailey has a number of the top schools in the country chasing after his services on the next level.

“I’m looking at Auburn, Georgia, South Carolina, Clemson, Tennessee and then out West, I like USC and Oregon,” Aparicio-Bailey said to Rivals’ Greg Biggins. “I have some junior days and spring visits coming up and then after that, I’m going to make a cut. 

“I want to try and take all five of my official visits. I don’t have any dates yet but I know I want to try and check out Georgia, South Carolina, Auburn and Clemson.”

Last AHSAA season at Oak Mountain, Aparicio-Bailey recorded 40 total tackles and four interceptions.
