Justice Haynes, A rushing threat is all set to rock the field in the red jersey. The 5-foot-11,200-pound running back has committed to playing for the Alabama Crimson Tide, despite having offered from the home states of Georgia, Florida, Ohio, Southern California, and others. A decision induced by his strong family history with football.

One of the most explosive and talented running backs in the nation, Justice is admired by fans across the country. He gives credit for his success to his family, especially his father, a former football player back in his day. Someone who stands tall with his son’s decisions. No one wonders if Justice would naturally be a good footballer because football runs in his blood.

Verron Haynes, a former football player, is proud of justice.

“Every man has his own path to walk, and I’m proud of you for choosing your own,” wrote Verron Hynes after his son chose to play with the Bama, showcasing unmatchable support for his son. He has played football during some of the finest Bulldog games, setting the bar quite high before ending his college career, recalling the game back in 2001, popularly known as “Hobnail Boot” after Larry Munson’s legendary call. Hynes was part of the game on the receiving end. The play was originally called P44 and Hynes gave Georgia a 26-24 win for the first time in 21 years. He later took over as UGA’s tailback because he got injured while scoring 592 yards and four touchdowns in the finals. Not only is Justice’s father his die-hard supporter, but his mother has been equally rooting for himtoo.

Brandy Gowdy, his mother started her high school career in Florida and got her graduate degree at UGA. His mother has played a huge role in instilling consistency and discipline since she has a keen eye for it. As a guiding force, she ensures that justice does not lose sight on and off the field. Be it clearing his room himself or scoring nice grades, Justice stays focused on his routine. The kind of schedule he followed throughout school to create remarkable outcomes, will fortunately help him build his college career as well.

Justice’s consistency will lead him to an excellent college career

Carrying 25 times for 168 yards with two touchdowns and one tackle in the freshman year and being named the No. 1 running back in the country during high school is rare. He was also ranked No. 21 on the ESPN 300 and ranked as the No. 4 running back and No. 50 overall player in the 2023 class by 247Sports. Currently, he is preparing for college, and he will join Alabama any day soon as an early enrollee. He is determined not to visit any other school, as he is done with the recruitment.

He has been with the Tide since 2023, and now he is the first one to commit to Alabama in the current cycle. Along with him, Alabama has signed four-star running backs Emmanuel Henderson and Jamarion Miller, who might all together create an amazing team. As for Justice, fans are highly anticipating that he will take his parents’ football legacy forward.
