On Wednesday, Alabama football experienced two decommitments from its 2025 recruiting class, losing linebacker Miles Johnson and athlete Zymear Smith. Both players announced they were reopening their recruitments. Smith, a four-star prospect, committed to Alabama in March but recently visited Maryland. Johnson, a three-star prospect, committed to Alabama in October when Nick Saban was still the coach.
Alabama did gain two commitments on Wednesday, including four-star Ohio edge Justin Hill and kicker Peter Notaro. Despite the decommitments, Alabama’s recruiting class remained ranked No. 2 nationally, behind Ohio State. Hill chose Alabama over Ohio State, Oregon, and Southern Cal, while Notaro is ranked as the No. 4 kicker in the class by Kohl’s Professional Camps.
Smith, playing at North Caroline in Maryland, is ranked as the No. 12 athlete in the class. Johnson, from T.R. Miller in Brewton, is ranked as the No. 51 linebacker in the class. Both players hold offers from other schools like Florida, Liberty, and Mississippi State.
The Crimson Tide’s recruiting efforts continue to be strong despite the losses, with the team maintaining a top ranking nationally. This news was reported by AL.com’s Crimson Tide beat writers.
