South Alabama head football coach Kane Wommack promised to recruit locally when he took over the Jags program in December of 2020. It wasn’t just talk.
St. Paul’s head coach Ham Barnett was a big fan of Wommack even before Hale, one of the Saints’ top players, committed to the Jags on Sunday.
The 6-foot-5, 295-pound Hale likely will be a guard or center at South. He plays primarily left tackle at St. Paul’s but can move all around the line as Barnett sees fit. He has dropped 15 pounds from last year, which will help his quickness. The 6-foot-2, 305-pound Norwood transferred from Blount to Theodore in the offseason. Mask said not only does he have great explosiveness, he also plays “very, very” hard.
Wommack told reporters after his first season at South that he planned to sign at least five players – either high school seniors or transfers – from the Gulf Coast each recruiting class.
