Alabama lands commitment from Top 100 running back Anthony “Turbo” Rogers
The Alabama football program added another massive piece to an already loaded running back room today as they landed a commitment from top 100 running back, Anthony Rogers.
According to 247Sports, Rogers is the No. 1 back in the 2025 class and the No. 33 overall player and chose the Crimson Tide over other big-time programs such as Auburn, Georgia, and Texas.
During his first two years of high school football Rogers totaled 3,385 receiving and rushing yards and 48 touchdowns. As a sophomore last season, Rogers led Pike Road to a 5A State Championship in Alabama before transferring to IMG Academy in Florida this off-season. Rogers has earned the nickname “Turbo” for his quick-twitch moves and breakaway speed.“I’ve always liked Bama since my first visit,” Rogers said. “I just love the feeling there. They have great coaches and I love the hard work you put in there.”
When Rogers was asked why he chose Alabama he said, “I’ve always liked ‘Bama since my first visit. I just love the feeling there. They have great coaches and I love the hard work you put in there. I’m closest with Coach Gillespie. We talk about how I can fit into their offense. He says I’m explosive and can make big plays taking handoffs or catching out of the backfield. I can be lined up at the slot as well and could be used as a returner.”
The Tide now has a top-two recruiting class in the 2025 rankings as Saban is fighting tooth and nail to reach the summit of the college football mountain again.
