With the caveat that 2027 is a long ways off. We have one on the board for now. And he's in state if you're into that sort of thing.

HELLO AGAIN, Guest! We are back, live! We're still doing some troubleshooting and maintenance to fix a few remaining issues but everything looks stable now (except front page which we're working on over next day or two) Thanks for your patience and support! MUCH appreciated! --Brett (BamaNation) if you see any problems - please post them in the Troubleshooting board!
“The process seems like it’s for divas. I just want to play football and focus on winning this championship.â€Â
Wish more players had that attitude.
Love his attitude. With Moody being a suburb area of Bham I feel fairly optimistic it sticks. Also, many Alabama prospects grew up idolizing and pulling for Alabama and being CJ's cousin is big also.
Here is an article with a little more info. This is the Alabama connections I was referencing in my post above.

Alabama football lands commitment from 2027 Moody (Ala.) LB Ba'roc Willis
The in-state prospect has been a regular visitor to Tuscaloosa in the past two years and was most recently on campus over the weekend

Coach Jake Ganus really has Moody rolling. I'm a big Ganus fan as I knew his family growing up. Jake's aunt was a cheerleader at Alabama but his adopted son is a freshman at Auburn this year.

I like Ganus myself. He is really moving up the ranks as a coach. I can see him moving on to a college coaching job pretty soon.
FYI, both of our '27 commits are top 100 players on 247. We need to hold onto them but a very good start.
I also see RB Exavier Crowell from Jackson is #6. I wonder if any relation to RB Isiah Crowell who went to UGA. Also, Thompson QB Trent Welborn is #97. Crowell's freshman highlights are ridiculous, fast and powerful, and hope we get him.
The initial Top 100 rankings for the 2027 class were released on Wednesday afternoon and both Alabama commits made the cut.
Jabarrius Garror checks in at No. 43 overall while Ba'Roc Willis is ranked as the No. 66 overall player in the country. The pair of in-state talents committed in back-to-back days. Willis, a Moody High School standout, picked the Crimson Tide on July 30 and Garror, out of Vigor High School, followed a day later. Both are regular visitors to Tuscaloosa and were on campus for the Champions Cook-Out during the last week of July.

Yes. Guess he and his family forgot there is a lot of $ to be made and being a loyal in-state player does not mean much. Hope we get him back but I never pay attention to players that commit with two years of HS left anyway.
Alabama loses commitment from top 2027 in-state edge rusher
On Wednesday morning, the Alabama Crimson Tide lost one of their current commitments from the 2027 recruiting class, as top in-state prospect Ba'Roc Willis announced that he would be decommitting from the program in order to re-open his recruitment. Willis, who rec

It’s really useless to post “ commitments “ this far out, especially these days. It’s a waste of time and space. He probably hasn’t started fielding his offers yet.
Commit now and sit back and let the other schools know what it will take to get your signature. Once better offers come in, then de-commit. Kids playing the system to their advantage while it lasts.
Because of stuff like this: This next season may be my last that I give any kind of attention to college football.
I only watched a few last year.
No longer the college football i grew up watching and admiring.
I just smile and nod when I read about "commitments" this far out. They are meaningless. Worse, they further expose the decline in our society.
Since I started watching Alabama football as a kid in 1958, I strongly suspect that you can count on less than one hand the number of televised games that I’ve missed, and those were due to unavoidable circumstances. Until this past season.
