Nick Saban has consistently recruited superstar wide receivers to the University of Alabama.
The Crimson Tide has its next great one in Isaiah Bond.
As a former four-star from Buford, Ga., Bond possesses the speed, routes, hands, footwork, and playmaking capabilities that resemble Jaylen Waddle and Jameson Williams. The 5-foot-11, 175-pounder caught everyone’s attention in 2022, posting 17 receptions for 220 yards and a touchdown. Bond split time as a receiver and return specialist, but he played in all 13 games.

He totaled his first career touchdown — a 6-yard catch from Bryce Young — in the Allstate Sugar Bowl against Kansas State at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, La. Bond shared a video on Twitter to recap his exciting freshman season.
