While early, Alabama’s 2027 recruiting class off to strong start

The Crimson Tide’s 2027 class is already off to a fast start.

While it is common for a program to hold multiple commitments from the next cycle during the current one (EX. Having 2026 commitments in 2025 cycle), it is not everyday that you seen multiple commits from two cycles ahead.

Well, that is now exactly what head coach Kalen DeBoer and the Alabama Crimson Tide have in a pair of in-state defensive prospects, Ba’Roc Willis and Jabarrius Garror.

The Crimson Tide officially landed their first 2027 commitment earlier this week when Willis, who attends Moody High School, committed to Alabama on Tuesday. Willis, who is an edge rusher/linebacker, was one of the state’s top freshmen a year ago amassing 79 tackles, 14.5 TFL, and nine sacks, and is likely set for an even bigger 2024 sophomore season.

A day later, Alabama also added their second 2027 commitment Wednesday as Garror, who attends Vigor High School, committed to the Crimson Tide. Garror is also an edge rusher/linebacker-type player, and is expected to have a big sophomore season as well.

Now yes, it is certainly very early when looking ahead to the 2027 class, but it is still a good sign that Alabama already has a pair of in-state commitments to build around. Will this group end up being among the nation’s best as with previous cycles?

2027 in-state EDGE Jabarrius Garror commits to Alabama over Auburn, others

2027 edge rusher Jabarrius Garror committed to Alabama on Wednesday. He chose the Crimson Tide over Auburn and LSU.

In two days, the Alabama Crimson Tide have landed commitments from two 2027 prospects. On Tuesday, Ba’Roc Willis of Moody High School (AL) committed to the Crimson Tide. On Wednesday, Jabarrius Garror of Vigor High School (AL) committed to the Crimson Tide.

Garror held over 20 offers. Several SEC schools that extended Garror an offer were the Auburn Tigers, Arkansas Razorbacks, Florida Gators, LSU Tigers, and Tennessee Volunteers.

The native of Mobile, Alabama plays for Vigor High School. In the past, Alabama had two players that came from Vigor — B.J. Scott and Jalston Fowler.

Garror has three years of high school remaining. He has more than enough time to continue to grow and develop as a part of the Wolves defense. As a freshman, Garror recorded 12 tackles, four tackles for loss, and three sacks in three games.

Alabama’s ’27 recruiting class now consists of two prospects. Garror is joined by fellow edge rusher Ba’Roc Willis. Willis is another in-state edge rusher from Moody High School in Moody, Alabama. He committed to the Crimson Tide on Tuesday.
