This one is wrapped up boys. While I'd love for a 4th WR in this class, certainly doesn't appear to be Brooks at this point.Damage conrol?
Jacorey Brooks' father thinks Alabama was a great choice

“It’s a really strong commitment,” Jacorey’s dad, Joey, told BamaOnLine.
Brooks and his father made their way to Tuscaloosa last October for the Tennessee game, their lone visit to the program prior to committing.
“Corey is a very mature kid and I let him make the decision that makes him happy and I support him 120 percent,” Brooks’ father said. “I thought Bama was a great choice.
“I love their weight training and I really love how the coaches have them ready and prepared, more than physically, mentally for the game.”
Another factor in Brooks’ decision was what UA has been able to do in developing wide receiver talent, particularly from South Florida.
“We took that into consideration, and also the productivity of their players and where they land at in the draft,” Joey Brooks said.
The Tide pledge’s father has also been impressed with Nick Saban.
“I think that Coach Saban is a real guy, my kind of guy,” Joey Brooks said. “He’s going to be straightforward with you. He’s positive but straightforward also, and I love that honesty.”
A commitment doesn’t stop the recruiting process for most, especially not Brooks. His father says Miami, Florida, and Auburn are still in communication. However, if visits are to take place this fall, Brooks isn’t so sure his son will look to take trips elsewhere.
