Skinner explained during his recruitment why he was considering Alabama. He said this to Rivals.com:
“It shows you can really go out there and play football and they’ll put you out there,” he said. “It doesn’t matter how big or how much you weigh. If you can play football, you can go out there and do it.”
The Crimson Tide have 16 players committed in their 2022 recruiting class.
