As Alabama football turns its attention to the 2026 recruiting class, the Crimson Tide lost one of its three commitments in the 2027 class.

Ba’Roc Willis, a 2027 recruit, has decommitted from Alabama football, he told 247Sports. “A love Bama Fam,” Willis wrote on social media Wednesday. “Please respect my decision.” Willis is from Moody and had been committed to the Crimson Tide since July.

The Crimson Tide's 2027 recruiting class took a hit this week as Kalen DeBoer and his staff lost a commitment from 4-Star edge rusher Ba'Roc Willis. The 6-foot-3, 220 lb. defender had been committed to Alabama since July of last year.
