It looks like there’s been a surprise twist in the college football recruiting world. A 4-star defensive lineman (DL) from Birmingham has made a shocking decommitment and chosen to join the Alabama Crimson Tide instead of Texas or Georgia.
The recruit in question is Jeremiah Beaman, a 6-foot-4, 265-pound DL from Parker High School in Birmingham, Alabama. Beaman is ranked as the No. 13 DL and No. 7 prospect from the state of Alabama, according to the 247Sports Composite.¹
Beaman’s decision is a significant pickup for the Crimson Tide, who are looking to bolster their defensive line. Alabama has been actively recruiting Beaman, and it seems their efforts have paid off.
It’s worth noting that Beaman’s decommitment is a significant loss for the other schools involved, particularly Texas and Georgia. However, it’s not uncommon for recruits to change their minds, and Beaman’s decision ultimately comes down to what he feels is best for his future.
