Taking to Twitter on Thursday, top 2016 linebacker Jaquan Yulee announced his decommitment from the University of Alabama. 

A native of Chesapeake, Va., Yulee had been a longtime commitment to Nick Saban's program. However as often the case is close to signing day, many prospects open up their respective recruitments in order to gain last-minute clarity on this monumental decision. 

Yulee is the prototypical middle linebacker. At 6'1", 246 pounds, he's a thumper in the middle of the field. He's at his best when attacking the line of scrimmage in a downhill style. Yulee understandably is terrific against the run.

With Yulee opening up things so close to signing day, one can assume many schools will be clamoring to get an official visit.
