He told Touchdown Alabama Magazine what the offer meant to him.
“It felt Great,” James said. “I’ve been waiting on this one.”
Nick Saban informed James of his offer and what stood out to him about the 2019 recruit.
“He offered me as an athlete,” James added. “He said he loves my instincts, ball skills and feet.”
James is a 3-Star CB, according to most recruiting outlets. He is currently committed to Mississippi State.
It is easy to see why Saban considers this kid to be an athlete. He is extremely fast and versatile. His knowledge of the game is also top notch.
Saban’s observations of this kid were spot on. He jumps routes like he is inside the other team’s huddle and his ability to judge the ball in the air is outstanding. These are all skills that can translate to the next level.
The Crimson Tide’s 2019 recruiting class has 16 commits at the moment and the Tide’s coaching staff will work very hard to get James to flip to Alabama and keep him inside of the state. Touchdown Alabama Magazine will keep you updated on his recruitment.
