Amari Jefferson outlined how much Alabama needed him after his visit there as well, via The Joe Gaither Show.

“He was just saying that Alabama needs me and that I'm a big priority for the 2024 class and he can see me as a big difference maker on the field for them. I think that's kind of what stuck out. When I met with him right before I left he was just telling me and my dad that they need me and he wants me at Alabama and when that's coming from Nick Saban that's pretty hard to turn down,” he said.

Amari Jefferson has both Alabama football and Georgia football in his final list of schools.
