In a major boost to the already strong recruiting class of Alabama football, cornerback Dijon Lee has committed to the Crimson Tide. The talented five-star prospect, hailing from Mission Viejo in California, announced his decision to join the 2025 class in a live stream on his Instagram account.
Lee chose Alabama over a number of highly sought-after suitors, including Texas and Georgia. His decision speaks volumes about the appeal and reputation of the Crimson Tide's football program. According to 247Sports national recruiting analyst Greg Biggins, Lee possesses exceptional skills in press coverage and has the ability to shut down opposing receivers at the line of scrimmage. He is also noted for his agility, change of direction, and rare vulnerability to being beaten over the top.
The 6-foot-4, 190-pound corner had an impressive junior season at Mission Viejo, accumulating 55 tackles, including 22 solo tackles. Lee also contributed two interceptions and 13 pass breakups, showcasing his well-rounded defensive abilities. His performance on the field caught the attention of scouts and secured him a spot as the No. 4 nationally ranked cornerback in the 2025 class according to the 247 composite.
With Lee's commitment, Alabama's 2025 recruiting class now boasts 20 talented players. He joins four-star cornerback Chuck McDonald as the second pledge in the cornerback position for the class. Lee's addition further solidifies Alabama's reputation for attracting top talent from across the nation.
Notably, Lee is the second five-star recruit in the 2025 class, following linebacker Darrell "Duke" Johnson. The Crimson Tide's ability to secure commitments from such highly regarded players cements their standing as one of the nation's premier football programs.
As Kalen DeBoer, Alabama's head coach, continues to shape his first full recruiting class, the addition of Dijon Lee is sure to bolster the Crimson Tide's defense. With his size, athleticism, and proven skills on display, Lee is poised to make an immediate impact when he dons the Crimson Tide uniform.
Alabama fans eagerly await the arrival of the dynamic cornerback on campus, as his commitment adds even more anticipation and anticipation to the future success of their beloved team.
