Hoover (Ala.) Spain Park wide receiver Barrett Price continues his rise on the recruiting trail this offseason with programs galore entering the race for his commitment.

“At the end of the day, I just wanted to leave my mark and leave my legacy at Ole Miss,” Deuce said Alexander, the team’s new No. 1 wide receiver. “When it came down to making my decision, it was like, there was no point in leaving. Why leave here? I’ve got everything I need here, everything I want.
“The coaches love me. The new coaches came in, even during the playoffs, and they were still showing me love. They were trying to stay out of the way, but they still showed me how much they valued me.
“Coach Golding is a great guy. I mess with him. I mess with his energy and everything he does. And playing with John David Baker, the way he talks and the way he coaches, I just love it. So there was no point in leaving.”
