From Rodney Orr of Tiderinsider.com

Concerning Ford’s athletic ability, Rodney Orr described the similarities in skill between Ford and a versatile running back in the Crimson Tide’s recent past.
“When you talk about speed, versatility, all those things, he kind of brings a Kenyan Drake look. A guy that can get down the field as a receiver. A guy that can run the football with great speed. He’s about 5-11/195, been clocked at 4.4” Orr said.
Despite just a three-star ranking from Rivals.com, Orr believes that Ford could be a significant pickup for Alabama.
“I can tell you this. He went to camps and outperformed some of the guys that are maybe more highly regarded in terms of their names and stars by their names. This guy is a guy that I think is a big pickup.” Orr mentioned.

“I think Emory (Jones) wanted to flip to Alabama. I think there were some things close to him that people that kind wanted him to stick to his commitment to Ohio State.” Orr said. “I think he wants to play in the south where the weather is a little warmer. That’s kind of the scuttlebutt that I hear right now on him, so he visited Florida and Florida State over the weekend.”
