Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowAlabama’s defense faces early fall camp testAlabama’s defense is getting a real test before the season even starts. With expectations sky-high for Kalen DeBoer’s second year, most of the Tide’s roster is healthy, but all eyes are on redshirt freshman Qua Russaw. He’s been limited in early practices, and while Coach DeBoer insists there’s no major concern, he’s also keeping details close to the vest. Russaw’s role as the starting ‘wolf’—a key hybrid position—means his health could make or break the defense. How much does a single player’s status worry you as we head toward Week 1? #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball00Share

Jay Williams+FollowAlabama football faces Malzahn’s tricks againGus Malzahn’s creative offenses have given Alabama football headaches in the past, but this year’s matchup feels different. While Malzahn’s playbook is still packed with surprises, recent rule changes and stronger defenses have made his “wizardry” less effective. FSU fans are hopeful with dual-threat QB Thomas Castellanos at the helm, but Alabama’s defense, led by Kane Wommack—who’s known Malzahn since high school—looks ready for the challenge. Can Malzahn reinvent his magic in Tallahassee, or will Alabama’s improved front shut him down? Let’s hear your thoughts: Is the Malzahn mystique gone, or does he have one more trick up his sleeve? #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball00Share
phughes+FollowAlabama defense leaders set a new toneNo more 'pissy attitudes'—that's the message from Alabama's senior defenders as they reshape the team's culture this season. LT Overton and Tim Keenan are making it clear: every player, especially the new guys, must buy into the standard or get left behind. Overton credits Keenan for showing what true dominance and leadership look like, and together, they're focused on turning relentless pressure into more sacks. If this attitude shift sticks, Alabama's defense could be a force in the SEC again. How do you think strong leadership changes a team's performance? #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball00Share
Michael Pitts+FollowWhy Geno VanDeMark could anchor Bama’s O-lineGeno VanDeMark’s journey from a three-star recruit in New Jersey to a key piece on Alabama’s offensive line is the kind of story that gets fans talking. After transferring from Michigan State, he played every game last season, filling in wherever the Tide needed him. Now, as a redshirt senior, he’s battling for the starting left guard spot—but even if he rotates, his versatility makes him invaluable. With Alabama’s line shaping up to be one of the best, VanDeMark’s impact could be huge. How do you see his role evolving this season? #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball00Share
John Camacho+FollowHow Tank Jones’s move shakes up Alabama footballLosing Tank Jones to Oregon isn’t just a recruiting headline—it could totally shift Alabama’s defensive game plan. With Jones gone, all eyes turn to Xavier Griffin, a five-star already committed to the Tide. Alabama’s coaches might now lean on Griffin to fill the edge rusher role sooner than expected, potentially changing his entire college trajectory. This kind of ripple effect shows how one commitment can reshape a team’s future. Do you think Griffin should focus on one position, or is versatility the key to success in today’s game? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball00Share
Jay Williams+FollowWhy Jeremiah Beaman could be Alabama’s next defensive starJeremiah Beaman is turning heads in Tuscaloosa as a name to watch for Alabama’s 2025 football season. After barely seeing the field last year, this 6’4”, 314-pound defensive lineman from Birmingham is set for a bigger role, likely as the top backup at defensive tackle. With veterans Tim Keenan III and James Smith still around, Beaman might not start, but his size and talent could make him a breakout force on the Crimson Tide’s defense. If he lives up to the hype, expect him to make a real impact this fall. Do you think Beaman is ready for the spotlight? #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball00Share

With the recruiting landscape shifting fast, how do you think these new payment rules will impact where top players land? #Sports #Football #AlabamaFootball12Share
phughes+FollowWhy Tank Jones left Alabama for OregonLosing 5-star EDGE Tank Jones to Oregon is a real gut punch for Alabama fans, especially since he grew up right here in Mobile.
