MONTGOMERY, Ala. – There might not be a more powerful announcement on national signing day than the one made by Henry Ruggs III.
The ESPN 300 wide receiver chose Alabama over Florida State, adding to a Crimson Tide class that came in to the day ranked No. 1 nationally. But he didn’t just put on the Alabama hat that was sitting on the table in front of him.
In a full auditorium at his high school, they played a video to honor Ruggs’ late friend Rod Scott, a classmate who died in a car accident on March 4, 2016.
