Just hours after it was known that Nick Saban was retiring as Alabama's head coach, five-star wide receiver Ryan Williams told ESPN on Wednesday that he has decommitted from the Crimson Tide's 2024 recruiting class.

Williams is the No. 9 overall prospect -- and the No. 3 receiver -- in the ESPN 300 rankings. A player out of Saraland, Alabama, Williams had been committed to the Crimson Tide since October, and he was caught off guard by the news of Saban retiring.
