Petitbon is rated as the No. 61 overall prospect nationally in the 247Sports composite rankings. He plays tackle for his high school, but may project as a guard at the next level.

"I love to run block," Petitbon said. "I love to stay low, get physical, use my hands, drive those guys right into the ground and constantly getting pancakes. If Alabama's not No. 1, it's one of the best offensive line schools in the country. They already have so many great offensive linemen and I just want to bring to that tradition and caliber they already have with so many tough, physical guys.

"They're going to be in your face every single play. It's guys that love being physical and compete every play. I want to be that guy who's staying low, getting physical and imposing my will every play." ...

Nice to see a player who is EAGER to play for Alabama.
