Jedrick Wills, five-star offensive tackle from Lafayette High School in Lexington, Kentucky, committed to Alabama earlier this month. He returned to Alabama on Saturday for an official visit.

"Simply amazing," Wills said when asked of his visit to Tuscaloosa. "I got down there early Saturday morning. It was a great game. I loved the way Alabama picked up the pace in the second half.

"The offensive line took over in the second half. All of them really stood out. I loved the atmosphere. The fans are great."

Wills traveled to Tuscaloosa with several family members which included his mom, dad, stepdad, brother, sister and uncle.

"The visit with the coaching staff went very well," he said, "Everything about the visit was great. I just felt really comfortable there. It was fun going to Coach Saban's house (Sunday morning). I enjoyed myself. The visit made me feel more comfortable about my decision."

The Lexington native was hosted by another former five-star from his home-state in running back, Damien Harris. He spent time with Crimson Tide commitments Alex Leatherwood and Najee Harris. He also mingled with five-star Tide targets Isaiah Wilson and Shaun Wade.

Wills remains very firm with his commitment to Alabama. He said Kentucky has not let up recruiting him since his decision.
