Alabama football fans can officially say they have five-star wide receiver, Ryan Williams.
Williams, a product of Saraland (Ala.) High School, won “Mr. Football” for the state of Alabama two straight years.

He nearly delivered Saraland to a Class 6A State Championship; however, Jaylen Mbakwe and Clay-Chalkville High School got the 31-28 victory at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Williams was committed to the Tide under Nick Saban, but he backed off his pledge when Saban announced his retirement. Kalen DeBoer got Williams back on board, and he signed his national letter of intent on Wednesday for the Crimson Tide. Alabama fans reacted with joy on social media to have Williams playing for the program.
