5-10/180
Alabaster, AL
Mason McClure is a dynamic, explosive wide receiver and multi-purpose athlete who has rapidly emerged as one of Alabama’s top 2027 offensive prospects. He brings verified speed, elite quickness, strong hands, and big-play ability after the catch.
• Explosiveness & Separation: Quick-twitch release and sudden route-running make him difficult to mirror. He creates immediate separation on quick outs, slants, and digs, and uses vertical speed/leap to stack and beat DBs deep. Camp evaluators (UA, 7-on-7) consistently note him “making defensive backs look foolish.”
• YAC Ability: Elite after-the-catch vision and elusiveness. He turns short throws into big gains with acceleration, cuts, and contact balance.
• Hands & Ball Skills: Reliable, natural catcher who tracks the ball well over the shoulder and in contested situations. High-point specialist thanks to his vertical.
• Versatility: Lined up outside and in the slot; also took carries out of the backfield. High football IQ and competitive toughness.
• Playmaker Mentality: Dynamic in space, creates after contact, and thrives in 7-on-7/open-field settings.
