Cole Adams has announced his decision to commit with the reigning SEC champions, the Alabama Crimson Tide. The four-star athlete is the first wide receiver the Crimson Tide reeled in through their recruiting process.
Adams received 15 offers, including one from his hometown University of Oklahoma. Bama’s receiving coach, Holoman Wiggins, loved Adam’s speed and explosiveness and led the way in bringing him to the University of Alabama.
“I’m picking Alabama not only because I love everything about them, but I really was set on going to play and compete against the best and be the best, so I feel it’s the best opportunity to do so. I fell in love with the staff the first hour I was on my visit. They are all down to earth, and I could just tell outside of the recruiting part that they were all just very good people.”
