Alabama offers Florida 9th grade wide receiver: ‘definitely one of my top schools’

Brysen Wright is only a ninth grader, but his offer list can match up against some of the nation’s best senior football prospects.

Wright attends Mandarin High School in Jacksonville, Florida. He holds more than 20 college football offers with offers from Alabama, Georgia, Miami, LSU, Tennessee and others. The Crimson Tide were so impressed with him, they offered him multiple times.

“It was the receiver coach (JaMarcus Shephard) and another coach,” Wright told Touchdown Alabama. “I don’t know if they communicated, but they both offered.”

Alabama’s success at developing wide receivers is one of the reasons Wright considers the Tide to be one of his top choices very early in his recruitment.

“I like what they produce at receiver, put them in the NFL and just what they produced as a team in general,” said Wright. “They produce what I want to do when I grow up, which is go to that NFL, definitely one of my top schools.”

The 6-foot-4, 202-pounder possesses many traits top wide receiver prospects need with his ability to create separation with his release off the line of scrimmage, make contested catches and create space with his route-running ability.

The Crimson Tide like how physical Wright is and how he attacks the football.
