Touchdown Alabama caught up with the Oak Mountain product before the recent boom in his recruitment, and he provided his early thoughts on the Tide.
“Ever since I was a little kid in California, all you heard about was Alabama, the legacy, the great Nick Saban era,” Aparico-Bailey said. “I’ve been up there one time. It’s an amazing school.”
