Alabama targeting JuCo TE

Dominick Wood-Anderson, tight end from Arizona Western Junior College in Yuma, is on Alabama's early radar. He is working on a trip to Tuscaloosa this spring.

"Alabama offered me about two weeks ago," Wood-Anderson said. "I had heard from them a little bit before the offer. Coach Lupoi hit me up on Twitter. He asked about my height and weight. He then asked if I would be ready to play at Alabama.

"He asked me to call him. He said they wanted to offer me a scholarship. He then switched me over to Coach Saban. They said they like my skill set and catching radius. They would like to utilize me a lot like O.J. Howard."

Wood-Anderson did not receive much attention coming out of high school. He is from San Diego, and played his senior season at Mater Dei.

"I felt really good to receive the offer from Alabama," he said. "I didn't get all of this attention in high school. I now have 12 offers. I am just enjoying the process. I will definitely take a trip to Bama. We are going to set something up where I can go when I am on spring break (March 30).

Which schools have his attention?

"Bama definitely stands out," he said. "I also like Louisville, Tennessee and Oregon. I just like Bama's success. They put people in the league. There really isn't much to say. It's Alabama just to be honest."

The 6-foot-5, 250-pound athlete will graduate from Arizona Western in December.
