Sad News: Alabama Head Coach Has Been Suspend Due To….

Alabama basketball shared a new jersey concept Monday, and it got some Crimson Tide football fans thinking about making a slight change to Alabama’s football uniforms.

The Tide have dawned the traditional crimson and white jerseys, with white pants and a crimson helmet for quite some time now. The concept which seems to be getting the most steam from Alabama fans at the moment is one where a white helmet is incorporated. Here is what some Tide fans on X are saying:

Alabama player unveils his expectations for Tide’s DL in the fall: “I want teams to fear us.”

Alabama football fans want more action than talk, but will it happen in the fall?

A player for the Crimson Tide — a former five-star — unveiled his expectations for Alabama’s defensive line last week on The Bama Standard. Damon Payne, Jr., a Michigan native, came in Alabama’s 2022 recruiting class as one of the top interior defensive linemen in the nation. He collected nine tackles and a tackle for loss in 2023, helping the Tide to a Southeastern Conference Championship and a College Football Playoff appearance. Payne looks to be a marquee leader with Justin Eboigbe heading to the NFL Draft. Alabama also lost Isaiah Hastings and Anquin Barnes to the NCAA transfer portal.

Kalen DeBoer, Alabama’s new head coach, retained Freddie Roach and promoted him to assistant head coach.

He continues with defensive linemen, and his group is ready to send a message next fall.

“The expectation is through the roof with us,” Payne said about Alabama’s defensive line. “We want teams to fear us when we stepped on that line. We want teams to not want to play our defensive line.”

Alabama fans have not seen an aggressive defensive lineman since Quinnen Williams

The 2016 unit of Jonathan Allen, Da’Ron Payne, Williams, A’Shawn Robinson, Dalvin Tomlinson, and Jarran Reed was the last one that put fear in the hearts of opponents. Payne named guys such as Jordan Renaud, Edric Hill, Hunter Osborne, and James Smith as young names that are prepared to step up. We will see how they fare soon in spring practice.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) – Alabama lawmakers say they are hearing from their constituents, and food costs are a big concern.

“They care more about their groceries right now,” said state Rep. Penni McClammy, D-Montgomery County. “Of course we care about education. Don’t get me wrong. Let’s see what we can do to get Alabamians a relief.”

Last session, lawmakers passed legislation to gradually cut the state’s 4% grocery tax by half. It dropped to 3% last year. The goal was to get it to 2% this year, but that is not happening.

A prerequisite for the cut was for estimated tax collections for the Education Trust Fund to go up at least 3.5%. Right now, officials say estimates are a little less than 2%.
