4-star WR Ryan Wingo sets visit with Alabama

Saint Louis (Mo.) St. Louis University four-star wide receiver Ryan Wingo is visiting Alabama this weekend. He announced the news Tuesday afternoon on Twitter.

Wingo is the No. 30 overall prospect and No. 7 wide receiver in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 2 player in Missouri.

On3’s Chad Simmons reported in early February that Wingo would be visiting Tuscaloosa on March 4.

“I have never been there before, so I just want to see what it is like,” Wingo told Simmons. “It should be a good time and I look forward to spending time with the coaches.”

Ryan Wingo Scouting Summary

The following is an On3 Scouting Report on Ryan Wingo:

“An electric playmaker who picks up yards in a hurry. Ran a 10.64 100m, 21.46 200m and a 50.72 400m in 2022. The ability to defeat the angle with the ball in his hands is among the best in the 2024 cycle early on. Can take the top off of defenses with ease but is not just a straight line player.
