4-star WR Shazz Preston makes commitment

Four-star wide receiver recruit Shazz Preston has committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide. UGA was in the mix for Preston.

Four-star wide receiver Shazz Preston committed to the Alabama Crimson Tide. Preston is a member of the class of 2022 and plays high school football for Saint James in Louisiana.

Preston is the No. 3 wide receiver prospect in his class, the No. 43 prospect overall and the fourth-best player in Louisiana.

On film, Preston displays good body control, is a solid route runner and frequently puts himself in a position to gain yards after the catch. Preston does a solid job of tracking the football and wins jump balls quite often for a 6-foot, 190-pound wide receiver.

The four-star prospect plays on a great high school team. St. James won a 3A state championship in 2019. In 2020, St. James advanced to the quarterfinals in 2020 before losing to Church Point.

Shazz Preston committed to Nick Saban and Alabama over Georgia, LSU, Southern and Texas. Alabama also landed a transfer from LSU, star cornerback Elias Ricks. Nick Saban continues to win on the recruiting trail.
