James Clemens’ (AL) junior defensive end, Nathan Jennings is on the radar of several D1 football programs, including Alabama.
Jennings currently holds an offer from Southern Illinois, but he is receiving interest from Alabama, Louisville, Mississippi State and others. The junior is currently listed at 6-foot-5 and 240 pounds. James Clemens primarily lines Jennings up at defensive end.
Alabama football hosted the in-state prospect for camp in June and after an impressive performance, he got to tour Alabama’s facilities and meet Nick Saban. He and his family returned to Tuscaloosa earlier this month to watch Alabama take on Utah State.
Jennings said Alabama has always been his dream school.
“Alabama has been my dream school since I was a kid,” Jennings said. “When I went to camp there over the summer, I did really well, took pictures and I got to meet Nick Saban. It was an amazing experience for me and my parents because we are true fans, and we got to see it with our own eyes. They also invited me to their home game against Utah State. That was a very good experience, and it was our first ever college football game. It would be a dream come true for me to play at Alabama when I graduate.”
At 6-foot-5 and 240 pounds, Jennings has great length. He has a quick get-off and attacks plays that go away from him with impressive backside pursuit.
“I feel like I can get off the ball well and use my speed and turn it into power to get by offensive lineman,” Jennings said.
