Alabama has received a commitment from coveted offensive line prospect Jonah Williams. The signing provides a nice early boost to the Crimson Tide's 2016 recruiting class.
Williams announced the choice on social media:
Justin Hopkins of 247Sports confirmed the Alabama addition:
Williams is a 4-star prospect who ranks inside the top 75 nationally, according to 247Sports' composite rankings. He also rates as the No. 9 offensive tackle in next's year's class and one of the 10 best players coming out of California.
Greg Biggins of Fox Sports provided some background details:
Given the nature of the current world of recruiting, early commitments always come with a grain of salt because so many top prospects change their minds. But the fact Williams stated he's planning to enroll early is a great sign for the Tide.
247Sports lists him at 6'5'' and 272 pounds. He'll need to bulk up in order to continue playing tackle at the collegiate level. It's a delicate balancing act, however, because he doesn't want to sacrifice too much of his quickness.
That said, he possesses intriguing upside, and Alabama is already putting the pieces in place for another top-notch recruiting class in 2016.
