Da'Marion 'Fluff' Bothwell committed to South Alabama on Wednesday morning.
“I think he’ll make an early impact there,” Phillips said. “Physically, he has worked himself into such good condition. He’s big, strong, powerful. He’s football smart. He does things you don’t teach. I think he has all the characteristics to go in and help pretty early.”
Four scholarship players at the position have eligibility remaining: sophomores Kentrel Bullock and Braylon McReynolds and freshmen PJ Martin and Jarvis Durr. Bothwell plays multiple positions for Oneonta, though Phillips said South is recruiting him as a running back. Bothwell was named the Class 4A Back of the Year as a junior by the Alabama Sports Writers Association after he led the Redskins to an 11-2 season and an appearance in the Class 4A semifinals.
This season, he has rushed for 743 yards and 9 TDs on 68 carries. He’s also caught 11 passes for 176 yards and a touchdown and has a pair of interception returns for scores. Bothwell and Oneonta host Fultondale on Friday.
