The University of Alabama’s football program boasts great wide receivers, but Crimson Tide supporters are waiting for one name to arrive on campus and steal the show.
Kalen DeBoer’s first marquee win as Alabama’s head coach was getting five-star Ryan Williams to re-commit and sign.
The superstar from Saraland (Ala.) High School de-committed from Alabama when Nick Saban announced his retirement from coaching; however, DeBoer’s ability to get him back was huge. DeBoer and his staff won Williams over when he took his visit to the school shortly after DeBoer got the job. Williams earned two-time “Mr. Football” for the state of Alabama and nearly delivered Saraland to a Class 6A state championship. Many Tide fans believe Williams is the receiver that can be the showstopper in the room like Julio Jones, Amari Cooper, Calvin Ridley, Jerry Jeudy, Henry Ruggs III, DeVonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle, and Jameson Williams were before him.
