Kalen DeBoer and the Alabama Crimson Tide are heating up on the recruiting trail. In fact, things are looking so good for 2026 that it may feel to some like Nick Saban is still pulling the strings in Tuscaloosa.
The Crimson Tide are on a hot streak. They landed nine commitments in the month of June, and now they’ve picked up another one on the first day of July.
It’s a very intriguing commitment as well. Brian Williams Jr. is only ranked as a three-star wide receiver, but at 6-foot-4, he has elite size for a wideout. He also received several big-time offers, so plenty of schools had him on their radar.
Despite an interest list that includes Penn State and Florida, an official visit to Alabama in early June sealed the deal for Williams.
He announced his commitment on Tuesday.
