Ohio’s rising star, Lamar “Bo” Jackson, has secured a coveted spot on one of the most sought-after team rosters. Ranked as the No. 8 running back, Jackson is lauded as one of the most promising young talents to watch.

Recently, he announced his commitment to play football for the University of Alabama under head coach Kalen DeBoer and offensive coordinator Nick Sheridan. Interestingly, Alabama famously missed out on signing the “original” Bo Jackson back in 1982 from McAdory High School. Instead, Jackson signed with Auburn and even scored the winning touchdown against Alabama. Will the addition of a new player with the same name prove to be a valuable asset to this already strong team?

Alabama football team has offered a scholarship to the running back. His decision comes after a conversation with head coach DeBoer and Colin Hitscher. Jackson has also confirmed the news through his X handle – “After a great conversation with @BAMACoachG I am very blessed and humbled to say I have been offered by @AlabamaFTBL Thank you @CoachHitsch @KalenDeBoer @VASJFootball”.

It seems like Jackson’s commitment might add another piece to Alabama’s already impressive recruiting class. Fans are also already buzzing about the potential fit between Jackson’s skillset and DeBoer’s system, which has produced some of the nation’s most dynamic backfields in recent years.

Bo Jackson Considers Alabama Among Other Offers

Lamar “Bo” Jackson, a rising star from Villa Angela St. Joseph High School in Cleveland, Ohio, is turning heads as a four-star recruit in the 2025 class. Ranked as the No. 8 running back and No. 101 overall player, Jackson has already garnered scholarship offers from powerhouses like Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Miami, and Ohio State, among others.

This widespread interest from top programs is a testament to his potential and further bolsters his reputation as a promising young athlete. Opting to join a prestigious team like Alabama could significantly impact his career trajectory and propel him toward future success.
