Rogers on why he chose Alabama 

“I’ve always liked Bama since my first visit,” Rogers said. “I just love the feeling there. They have great coaches and I love the hard work you put in there.”

Relationship with coaching staff + their plan for Anthony Rogers

“I’m closest with coach Gillespie,” Rogers said. “We talk about how I can fit into their offense. He says I’m explosive and can make big plays taking handoffs or catching out of the backfield. I can be lined up at the slot as well and could be used as a returner.”

The in-state running back joins coach Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide’s top 2 class in the 2025 team rankings. He is accompanied by five-star wide receiver Ryan Williams, and four-stars Mason Short and Dontrell Glover.

Rogers ranks as the No. 96 player in the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also tabs in as the No. 8 running back and the No. 19 player in the state of Florida.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $65K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
