Alabama has begun to see success with its 2023 recruiting class. Over the last month, the Tide has landed seven commitments. The positive recruiting news continued in Tuscaloosa on Thursday evening as 2023 wide receiver Jalen Hale released his top three schools. Alabama was one of the three schools listed.
There have been two wide receivers to join the 2023 recruiting class: Cole Adams and Malik Benson. Wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins has done a phenomenal job so far and will look to continue his hot streak of landing receivers over the coming months. With Alabama being one of three finalists, they have to like their chances with the Texas native.
Hale is one of few wide receivers that the coaching staff has pursued heavily. Ideally, the staff would like to add just one more wide receiver. However, they would likely welcome two commitments. Hale is somewhat similar to former Alabama wide receivers Henry Ruggs and Jameson Williams in the fact that he also runs track. As a sophomore at Longview High School, he ran a 22.68 in the 200-meters.
