Five-star Class of 2023 cornerback prospect Jahlil Hurley stayed in-state with his commitment to Alabama on Tuesday.
The 6-foot-2 recruit from Florence, Ala., is rated the No. 22 overall prospect in his class and the fourth-best corner in the 247Sports Composite rankings.
Hurley chose the Crimson Tide over Auburn, Georgia, Texas A&M, Michigan and other high-profile suitors.
He told 247Sports in an interview that he was looking forward to playing for Nick Saban — “being coached by the GOAT,” greatest of all time.
Saban, who has won six of his seven national championships at Alabama, has gotten a jump on the 2023 recruiting cycle with Hurley following four-star safety Elliot Washington as the first two members of the class.
