Happy Monday, everyone. There were many hallelujahs over the weekend after Alabama landed a top 100 prospect in WR Osani Gayles.
After landing multiple receivers in Kalen DeBoer’s first two recruiting classes at Alabama, Gayles is the first one to join Alabama in 2027. But Gayles is the quality of receiver the Crimson Tide expects to land on a yearly basis.
After adding four-star Cederian Morgan in 2026, a top-50 wide receiver from Alexander City, Gayles continues that same trajectory as a different type of receiver. While a smaller frame at 5-foot-11, 180 pounds, he is speedy, reporting a 4.43-second 40-yard dash.
A California native that transferred to IMG Academy, Gayles had 20 catches for 492 yards and five touchdowns, per 247Sports, adding 70 rushing yards and a score on five carries.
DeBoer has mostly shown an affinity for big pass catchers, but every squad needs a gamebreaker or two and Gayles has that potential.
