Kalen DeBoer, the new head coach of Alabama football, had his first chance to show Crimson Tide supporters what the 2024 team would look like on the field at Saturday’s spring game. Obviously, it’s difficult to predict how DeBoer will do before the season begins, but his 2025 recruiting class is looking terrific so far, which is a promising sign. Lotzeir Brooks, a three-star wide receiver, has become Alabama’s ninth commit in the class.
Class of 2025 WR Lotzeir Brooks has committed to Alabama, he informs me for @on3recruits,” Hayes Fawcett wrote on Twitter. “The 5’10 180 WR from Millville, NJ chose the Crimson Tide over Kentucky and Tennessee.”
Lotzeir Brooks is coming to play for Kalen DeBoer and the Alabama football team. The three-star recruit is ranked #437 overall according to 247 Sports, he is the #63 WR in the class of 2025 and the #14 player in the state of New Jersey. Brooks currently attends Millville High School in Millville, New Jersey.
Brooks has offers from a lot of top teams across the nation. He chose the Crimson Tide over Kentucky and Tennessee, but he also held offers from Penn State, Oregon, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Georgia and many others. He has a very impressive offer list, but Alabama stood out among the pack. He has a message for everyone after his commitment.
“The world will wake up after this one,” Brooks said.
This is a big pickup for Kalen DeBoer and Alabama. When DeBoer took over as the head coach of the Crimson Tide after Nick Saban departed, there was certainly some concern about recruiting taking a hit. After losing one of the best football coaches of all time, there are certainly some question marks. However, DeBoer’s 2025 class is looking solid right now.
