Who is trending for Alabama RB target Anthony Rogers?
So far this year, Rogers has logged one visit to Alabama and Auburn. He’s also taken multiple trips to the University of Florida, per his On3 recruiting profile page. To our knowledge, he has not been on any other college campus this offseason.
According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, the Crimson Tide are the heavy favorites in Rogers’ recruitment. The On3 RPM currently gives Alabama a 93.8 percent chance at landing his commitment today. BamaOnLine‘s Andrew Bone and Joseph Hastings have each submitted predictions in favor of Alabama.
Not only did Rogers grow up a fan of Alabama and rooted for them, but he also has family who currently attends the school. He’s also friends with current Bama players and Montgomery area natives James Smith, Khurtiss Perry, and Qua Russaw.
“I really like the coaching staff,” Rogers previously told Andrew Bone regarding the Crimson Tide. “They make you work for everything you get. That’s the type of program I can see myself being a part of.”

Bone also had an opportunity to speak with someone close to Rogers about his skill set. The source had high praise for Rogers, even saying that he could be “a lot like Tyreek Hill” if he focused on playing receiver.
“He’s explosive and strong as [you know what],” he said. “He has freaky athleticism. He’s a lot stronger than people think. Breaks a lot of tackles. He can run, he can catch. He runs like a power back who was shot out of a cannon.”
Whoever will land Rogers today will be getting one of the top rising juniors in the country. The On3 Industry Rankings tab Rogers as the No. 98 overall recruit in the Class of 2025. He’s also the eighth-ranked running back in his class, as well as the No. 19 overall 2025 prospect in Florida.
Keep it locked in with BamaOnLine today to see if Alabama will land a commitment from Rogers. Bama already holds verbal pledges from Dontrell Glover, Mason Short, and Ryan Williams in their 2025 class.
