Ba’Roc Willis, a 2027 recruit, has decommitted from Alabama football, he told 247Sports.

“A love Bama Fam,” Willis wrote on social media Wednesday. “Please respect my decision.”

Willis is from Moody and had been committed to the Crimson Tide since July.

The 247Sports Composite ranks him as the No. 57 overall prospect in the 2027 recruiting class. He’s the No. 9 edge defender and No. 4 prospect in the state of Alabama.

He also has offers from Arkansas, Auburn, Florida State and others.

The Crimson Tide is heading into the second year under coach Kalen DeBoer. Alabama landed the No. 2 recruiting class in the early signing period and has the No. 4 class per the 247Sports Composite as of Wednesday.

The Crimson Tide is fresh off a 9-4 season which ended with a loss in the ReliaQuest Bowl.
