Once again, Alabama has secured a top recruit from the Midwest. This time, it’s four-star outside linebacker Justin Hill, who announced his commitment to the Tide over Ohio State, Oregon, and USC. With this addition, Alabama now has 22 commitments in the 2025 recruiting cycle, placing them in contention for the number one class in the nation.
Hill’s commitment is significant for several reasons. Firstly, he managed to beat out other powerhouse programs for their pledge. Secondly, he is a key player for Alabama’s defensive lineup. The battle with in-state rival Ohio State was particularly intense, but ultimately Hill was won over by the vision presented to him by the Tide’s defensive coordinator and linebackers coach.
At 6-foot-3 and 210 pounds, Hill possesses the size and agility needed to excel as an outside linebacker in college football. His quick first step off the line and impressive speed make him a valuable asset in both pass rush and coverage situations. His athletic ability, evidenced by his track times, combined with his potential for further development in college, position him as a player with the potential to make a significant impact in the SEC.
