Alabama DL commit Jaheim Oatis named Mr. Football

Jaheim Oatis was named the 2021 Mississippi High School Activities Association’s Mr. Football for the 4A classification Monday.

Oatis is rated as a four-star recruit and is currently verbally committed to Alabama. The Alabama commit has 55 tackles, five sacks and 22 tackles for loss this season, according to the Clarion Ledger. Oatis told Touchdown Alabama he could not wait to join the program after we saw him play earlier this season.

“They always play like family,” Oatis said. “They pick each other up when they are down. They are a good team to play with, and I can not wait to join the family.
