Current Alabama Crimson Tide Quarterback Jalen Milroe announce NFL retirement today due to….
New Alabama Crimson Tide football head coach Kalen DeBoer had the tough task of recruiting and working the NCAA transfer portal after legendary head coach Nick Saban announced his retirement.
While the former Washington Huskies coach had numerous key transfer pickups, the one with the biggest impact may be former Michigan Wolverines defensive back Keon Sabb.
Will Backus of CBS Sports recently revealed the projected stars for every SEC program which were 2024 transfer portal commits.
For the Crimson Tide, Sabb is projected to be the biggest difference-maker.
Backus goes as far as saying Sabb is “invaluable” given his experience and the losses Alabama suffered over the offseason, courtesy of the transfer portal and the NFL draft.
He was a key fixture in Michigan’s secondary rotation in 2023, starting five games at safety for a Wolverines squad that went 15-0 en route to a College Football Playoff National Championship,” writes Backus.
The Crimson Tide defense was exceptional at the national level under Saban, especially the secondary.
With his retirement, DeBoer has the responsibility of maintaining an elite secondary, filling the depth chart with talented players who are willing to step up to the challenge of playing under the brightest lights for the Alabama program.
