Team Predictions
Scouting Report
Explosive two-way athlete with the athleticism to excel at either wide receiver or cornerback. Has one of the better speed profiles in the 2022 cycle with a sub 10.5 second 100 meter time and a 21.05 second best in the 200 meters. Not big at 5-foot-10, 170 pounds, but has a 6-foot-4 wing-span. Seems most likely to start out at wide receiver in college. The track speed transfers over to the field where he is capable of taking a quick pass to the house. Also shows the ability to separate on vertical routes. Has agility, vision and some contact balance after the catch in addition to the long speed. Can track the ball, but still developing some of the technical aspects of his game at receiver. Will need to continue improving his routes and has not always been a reliable hands-catcher, though he’s shown some improvement in that regard over time.

Personal Life
Isaiah Bond can be described in a number of different ways, but maybe the most fitting is clutch. Bond made one of the most iconic receptions in Alabama history with a miraculous game-winning catch against Auburn in the 2023 Iron Bowl. "He's a great receiver," Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe said. "What a great player, very explosive, detail-oriented. He's a team guy. And you know you can count on him when you need to make a big play. He always came through – clutch." Bond, a former four-star recruit from Buford High School in Georgia, transferred to Texas after two successful seasons as a star wide receiver at Alabama. Bond enters the 2024 season as a preseason second-team All-SEC pick. He amassed 48 catches for 668 yards and four touchdowns in 2023. “I think one thing that gets missed in a lot of this is we recruited Isaiah out of high school," Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said. "He was a kid out of Buford High School in Georgia and we recruited him hard. As you know, we love having those dynamic playmakers, those guys that can possess some speed, that can create space and create explosive plays."
