A year removed from earning Lineman of the Year honors in the state of Alabama, four-star defensive tackle Jah-Marien Latham is having another strong season, helping Reform (Ala.) Pickens County along another playoff run.

The 6-foot-3, 280-pound defender has split time along both sides of the trenches for the Tornadoes this season, and has played equally impressive on each side of the ball.

Last Friday in Pickens County's 21-20 playoff victory over Falkville, Latham accounted for eight tackles, including two tackles for a loss, and a sack.

It's much of the same story throughout the rest of the season as Latham has racked up 65 tackles, including 25 tackles for a loss, seven sacks, and a forced fumble on the year as Pickens County enters the third round of the playoffs this Friday.

Pickens County head coach and former Alabama tight end Michael Williams spoke with BOL earlier this season about his star senior:

“We often go back to the point of comparing me to him when I was in high school, and he’s a lot more tougher than I was, he’s a lot stronger than I was, and I feel like he’s a more complete player than I was,” Williams said. “He does things on the field that you just can’t teach. It’s not just athleticism, it’s a lot of technique that he uses. I can say for myself that’s something I didn’t have coming into Alabama. I think that’s something he’ll benefit from when he gets on campus.”

Recently, Latham caught up with BamaOnLine, reaffirming his status with the Tide.

“I’m 100 percent solid,” he said.

Ole Miss has remained in the picture, and hosted Latham as recently as last weekend on an unofficial visit. Latham, however, has been to Tuscaloosa for every home game in 2019, and is expected back this weekend.

He plans to sign early.
