Former Alabama wide receiver Isaiah Bond found his new home, as On3’s Hayes Fawcett reported on Sunday that he had committed to Texas.
Bond caught 65 passes for 888 yards and five touchdowns across his two seasons in Tuscaloosa. The former four-star prospect exploded as a sophomore this past season, leading the Crimson Tide with 48 receptions. His 668 receiving yards ranked second on the team behind wideout Jermaine Burton and 16th in the conference overall.
Bond did not surpass 100 yards in a game in 2023, but he came close a handful of times. He reached 75 receiving yards five different times, including a 96-yard game against Texas A&M and a 79-yard performance against Georgia in the conference title game.

Bond is most known for the big moments he came through in for the Crimson Tide. He made a crucial fourth-down catch in the title game against Georgia, and he famously came down with a 31-yard touchdown on fourth and goal against Auburn to keep Alabama’s playoff hopes alive.
