WR Malik Benson Commits to Alabama; Top JUCO Recruit Had 11 TDs Last Season

Alabama got a commitment from a junior college player.

The Kansas native announced his decision on the social media site.

He is considered the No. 1 JUCO recruit in the class of 2023. He had 43 catches for 1, 229 yards and 11 touchdown in 11 games.

After one year in JUCO, he received over twenty scholarship offers.

Alabama was chosen over Georgia, LSU, Oregon and Tennessee.

"I picked Alabama because I was a big fan of their dominance," he said. If I ever get the chance to play at Alabama, I'll go there. I had to use my whiteboard to get an offer from Alabama.

I think Alabama is a Wide Receiver U. It wasn't a hard decision. I need to go to that place as a top JUCO receiver.

Alabama has an impressive track record of developing receiver talent. There have been five first-round picks at the position in the last three years.

Tony Mitchell, a 5-star defensive back, is one of 11 commits for the year of23.
