Alabama has added another major piece to its 2025 recruiting class with the commitment of 6-foot-4 wide receiver Brian Williams, a long, explosive playmaker out of Texas. Williams made his decision public on Wednesday afternoon, choosing the Crimson Tide over finalists Georgia, Texas A&M, and USC.
Williams, known for his length, catch radius, and ability to win contested balls, immediately becomes one of the most intriguing additions to Alabama’s wide receiver room. The towering pass-catcher brings a physical presence on the perimeter and has been one of the most productive receivers in the Lone Star State, racking up over 1,200 receiving yards and 16 touchdowns during his junior campaign.
“I chose Alabama because it’s the standard,” Williams said in his announcement video. “Coach DeBoer and Coach Shephard have a vision for me, and I want to be developed at the highest level.”
With new head coach Kalen DeBoer taking over the reins in Tuscaloosa, Williams’ commitment marks another win for the staff’s recruiting momentum. Wide receivers coach JaMarcus Shephard was key in landing the commitment, building a strong relationship
