Alabama hosted Thaiu Jones-Bell, one of its top targets in the 2020 cycle, over the weekend on an unofficial visit. The Hallandale (Fla.) Miami Carol City product came away from his first trip to Tuscaloosa impressed. “It was great,” Jones-Bell told BamaOnLIne of the visit over text message.
The four-star receiver from South Florida got the full tour of campus and spent time with coaches during his stay. “The academic aspect and the love Coach has for his players,” Jones-Bell said of what he liked best. “I felt the Alabama love.”

Jones-Bell named Alabama his leader last month. Is that still the case after seeing campus? “Definitely,” he replied.
The South Florida standout was on many UA fan’ commitment watch lists entering the weekend considering he already had UA No. 1 on his list. Jones-Bell admits it crossed his mind. “Kinda,” he said when asked if it was tempting to go ahead and commit.
Should the four-star wideout make that move later on down the line, what would be the main factor for joining the Tide? “The love they accord to the players and their academics are amazing,” Jones-Bell said.
The 247Sports Top100 prospect says he has no timetable to make a commitment. He wants to visit Penn State, Florida State, Georgia, and Oregon as well.
At 5-foot-11, 187 pounds, Jones-Bell is rated the No. 27 wide receiver and the No. 144 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite Rankings.
