Jaren Hamilton picked up an offer from Alabama football after attending Wednesday’s Nick Saban Football Camp.
Hamilton attends Buchholz High School in Gainesville, Florida. He has flown under the radar as far as recruiting ratings are concerned. The Florida product does not have a star rating from any major recruiting outlet despite holding more than 10 D1 offers.
Saban informed Hamilton he earned an offer from the Crimson Tide after Wednesday’s camp wrapped up.
“I felt a lot of emotions at once,” Hamilton told Touchdown Alabama. “I was really thankful to receive the recognition from coach Saban and the staff as they witnessed what I can do out on the field. The stats and accolades Alabama put up year after year are phenomenal. One could only dream of being a part of something like that. Coach Saban is a legend in the game.”
Hamilton was able to work out in front of multiple Alabama coaches during Wednesday’s camp. He felt he shined the brightest when he went up against competition.
“I felt like I did alright during the first part,” Hamilton said.”I could have done way better, but when we got to actually play in one-on-ones and 7v7, I felt like I played well. There were still some things I could have done better, but overall my performance spoke for itself.”
The rising senior also stated he likes the way Alabama uses their wide receivers.
“They utilize them a lot, and that is a place you want to be, WRU,” Hamilton said.
At 6-foot-2 and 190 pounds, Hamilton is an impressive route runner with great speed. He does not gear down when getting in and out of his breaks, and he knows how to create separation off the line of scrimmage with some impressive releases. The 2023 prospect can also make plays after the catch.
