Alabama Shocks ’25 Running Back Star with Unforgettable Offer – Football World in Awe
Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer and his new staff hosted their first Junior Day on Saturday, but that didn’t stop several coaches from hitting the recruiting trail on Friday. Bama247 confirmed stops were made in Louisiana, California, North Carolina and Kansas.
Running backs coach Robert Gillespie checked in with four-star running back James Simon (Shreveport, AL) and three-star running back Jasper Parker (Marrero, LA). Simons already held an offer from the Crimson Tide, but Parker was informed of his offer during the conversation on Friday afternoon.
Bama247 connected with Parker for some thoughts on the Alabama offer and learned what coach Gillespie told him.
Reviews from Alabama recruits following the first Junior Day of the Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer era continue to roll in and they’re overwhelmingly positive.
Bama247 has spoken with Alabama commit and No. 1 running back in 2025 Anthony Rogers (Bradenton, FL) and others. Our latest conversation was with 6-foot-6 tight end prospect Chase Loftin (Omaha, NE).
