  05/13/21 - Henry Too Too, Sr/2023, Alabama, 6-1, 227 (DS#3 ILB) + More +

  Henry To'o To'o improved his chances of smoking a cigar. To'o To'o changed sides in the Third Saturday in October rivalry when the former Tennessee football linebacker committed to Alabama on Saturday. He'll have three years of eligibility remaining. As an undergraduate transfer, an SEC intraconference bylaw requires To'o To'o to sit out a season unless he gains a waiver from the conference. However, SEC leaders are expected to review that bylaw in the coming weeks and could vote to alter or remove it to allow intraconference transfers immediate eligibility. That means To'o To'o has a chance to line up across from his former team when the Vols play at Alabama on Oct. 23.

But even if To'o To'o gains immediate eligibility, will he be a starter for Alabama? To'o To'o was one of UT's top defensive players, leading the Vols with 76 tackles last season. Alabama returns starting inside linebacker Christian Harris. The other starting inside linebacker spot is up for grabs, with veteran reserve Jaylen Moody and four-star early enrollee Deontae Lawson among the top contenders. Lawson signed as a top-100 recruit. Additionally, the competition includes Shane Lee, a Freshman All-America selection in 2019. To'o To'o is at a disadvantage having not participated in spring practice. - Montgomery Advertiser

  Former Tennessee linebacker Henry To'o To'o announced Saturday he is transferring to Alabama. "I thank you for everything Heavenly Father," To'o To'o wrote on Instagram. "ROLL TIDE" One of the top linebacker prospects in the 2019 class, To'o To'o played two seasons at Tennessee. He entered the transfer portal in January. To'o To'o has the potential to play immediately at Alabama after the NCAA approved a one-time transfer waiver last month. However, the SEC still must change its intraconference transfer rule to allow To'o To'o to play this season.

Several other major conferences have eliminated their rules prohibiting players from participating immediately after transferring within the conference. SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said this week the conference is expected to make a decision by the "end of May, early June" on its rule. To'o To'o, an all-freshman SEC selection in 2019 who played at De La Salle High School in California, becomes a potential starter in Alabama's defense alongside fellow junior Christian Harris in a spot occupied last season by Dylan Moses. Coach Nick Saban said this spring that senior Jaylen Moody had "taken advantage" of his chance to start, but now it appears Moody and To'o To'o will be competing for the same job. - Birmingham News

  Tennessee's leading tackler Henry To'o To'o is heading to rival Alabama. The junior linebacker announced Saturday on social media that he was transferring to the defending national champions. To'o To'o would likely be a candidate to replace starting inside linebacker Dylan Moses. A new NCAA policy allows players to transfer once and be eligible to play immediately. However, the Southeastern Conference currently requires intraconference transfers to sit out a season. To'o To'o had 148 tackles over his first two seasons with the Volunteers, leading the team with 76 tackles and 10 stops for a loss as a sophomore. To'o To'o was a Top 50 recruit and the third-rated outside linebacker in 2019, according to the 247Sports composite rankings. - AP College Football

  05/08/21 - *Dylan Moses, rJr/2021, Alabama, 6-1, 225 (DS#7 ILB) + More +

  It was another banner year for Alabama in the NFL draft, but one former Crimson Tide star did not hear his name called by a pro team last weekend. Dylan Moses, a former 5-star recruit and a first-team All-SEC pick in 2020, went undrafted and later signed a free-agent contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Moses battled injuries during his Alabama career, including a knee ligament injury that forced him to miss all of 2019 and a torn meniscus that he played with throughout this past season. Speaking to reporters Thursday night in Mobile, Saban said Moses going undrafted was not only unexpected, but perhaps a little unfair. He added that Moses should have been credited for playing hurt the entire 2020 season, in which he helped Alabama win the national championship.

"It had nothing to do with what kind of football player he is," Saban said prior to his speaking engagement at a fundraiser for Team Focus, a youth mentoring organization founded by former college football coach and television broadcaster Mike Gottfried. "It was all based on medical grades by the teams, which, frankly, was a little surprising to me. My time in the league, when guys came back and played, that usually got (them) out of that '5' medical grade, which is 'undraftable.' It might have been a '4' medical grade, which means a guy does have an injury that could be a problem in the future, but he's come back and played with it, so we have to give him an opportunity. "I certainly think that's where Dylan Moses should have fallen for sure, and should have gotten an opportunity, because he played all season long for us. And I think that should be a good enough indicator that he can play in the NFL." - Birmingham News

  05/08/21 - *Jameson Williams, Jr/2022, Alabama, 6-2, 180 (DS#2 WR) + More +

  When Williams committed to Alabama Monday morning, the Missouri native and former top-100 recruit was just five days removed from entering the NCAA transfer portal at Ohio State. Tide wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins, a former college teammate of Gregory at New Mexico, made contact after Williams went into the portal and helped the Crimson Tide beat out Georgia, Texas A&M and others to land the commitment. "It was one of them things: If I go in the portal, I want to entertain A, B, C and Alabama was one of the A, B, Cs," Gregory said. "... He's going to play for somebody that his high school coach knows. Dad originally wanted him to go to 'Bama. And then, on top of Ohio State being No. 1, Alabama was kind of 1A, 1B. So two years later to still have that opportunity… He was listening to some of the other schools too, but I kind of knew in my heart that it was going to be Alabama."

Before Monday, the Tide only had two wide receivers who recorded more than three catches last year. Now, Alabama has another receiver with starting experience, a whole bunch more speed for its new quarterback Bryce Young and - as DeVonta Smith can attest to - someone who's capable of contributing on special teams if need be as well. "He didn't leave Ohio State just because he wants the ball all the time," Gregory said. "He's a team-first guy. But at the end of the day, he just wanted to go somewhere where he can be more productive and help a team in more ways." - Birmingham News

  05/06/21 - *Evan Neal, Jr/2022, Alabama, 6-8, 345 (DS#1 OT) + More +

  Much like college football's seemingly-endless recruiting cycle, the page has quickly turned in the NFL from the 2021 draft to the top prospects for the 2022 draft. Not surprisingly, Alabama has a number of players perceived as potential first-round picks, with none ranked higher than offensive tackle Evan Neal. The 6-foot-7, 360-pound Neal was a five-star recruit who started immediately as a guard in 2019 before transitioning to right tackle in 2020. He is expected to start for a third consecutive season as a junior this fall at left tackle, which could serve as a springboard for him being an early first-round pick during next April's draft in Las Vegas. Neal has size that NFL teams covet at the position and will likely begin this season with all-conference recognition. Alabama appears prepared for the likelihood that Neal will declare early for the NFL draft after this season. The Tide boasts a pair of incoming five-star freshmen at offensive tackle, Tommy Brockermeyer and JC Latham. - Birmingham News

  05/05/21 - *Jameson Williams, Jr/2022, Alabama, 6-2, 180 (DS#2 WR) + More +

  Jameson Williams is leaving one 2020 national championship game participant for the other. The former Ohio State receiver announced Monday morning on Twitter that he will transfer to Alabama. Williams, who played two seasons for the Buckeyes, entered the portal about a week ago. Due to new NCAA transfer rules, Williams can play for Alabama this fall. Previously, undergraduate transfers had to sit out one year unless they received a waiver.

Williams started for Ohio State last season, but it became clear this spring that would no longer be the case in 2021. Garrett Wilson shifted back outside along with Chris Olave to make room for Jaxon Smith-Njigba in the slot. That would have left Williams to contend for second-string snaps with redshirt freshman Julian Fleming and true freshman Marvin Harrison Jr., who had an impressive spring. Alabama lost two receivers to the first round of the NFL Draft: Heisman Trophy winner DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle. It returns John Metchie and Slade Bolden, who started when Waddle was out most of the season with injury. Williams now slides in with a bunch of other talented but less proven players vying for playing time. - Cleveland Plain Dealer

  The Tuscaloosa gateway to the transfer portal has been more of an on-ramp - more of an exporter than an importer. That changed, at least for the moment, Monday when Jameson Williams took the T-town exit after leaving Ohio State. It was a move that made sense for both sides, especially given the transfer rule recently passed by the NCAA. For Alabama, its receivers room lost its two most talented and experienced stars in DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle. Slade Bolden was the lone receiver with serious experience who played on A-Day as he returns for a fourth fall at Alabama. John Metchie will be back this fall after missing the spring with an injury and there's certainly some young talent flashing potential.

Williams, once the top-rated recruit in Missouri and No. 13 receiver nationally, brings two years of Big Ten experience to Alabama. He's known as a speed burner and that should come as no surprise to the Crimson Tide coaching staff. Though he caught just one pass for 14 yards in the CFP title game, Williams lit up DeVonta Smith right as he hauled in the first punt of the night. He also brings impressive height at 6-foot-2 and 188 pounds. It would also be fair to say he's leaving a more crowded depth chart in Columbus to transfer south. The return of Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson, former five-star Jaxon Smith Njigba and the emergence of freshman Marvin Harrison Jr. (you don't have to google it) this spring probably meant he'd be facing more seasoned competition at Ohio State than Alabama. - Birmingham News

  05/04/21 - *Dylan Moses, rJr/2021, Alabama, 6-1, 225 (DS#7 ILB) + More +

  Alabama linebacker Dylan Moses is signing with the Jacksonville Jaguars after not being picked in the 2021 NFL draft, ESPN and NFL Network reported. The reports added that Moses will be placed on the non-football injury list as he continues to recover from February surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his knee. The injury, which Moses said he played through last season without realizing its severity, is considered non-football within the NFL's collective bargaining agreement because it happened before he joined the NFL. Although Moses had been projected as a mid-round pick, he instead will earn minimal guaranteed money as an undrafted free agent while also having little assurance about a roster spot once he comes off the NFI list. - Birmingham News

  05/04/21 - Thomas Fletcher, Sr/2021, Alabama, 6-1, 236 (DS#1 LS) + More +

  Alabama long snapper Thomas Fletcher was trying to work out his football future when the Carolina Panthers did it for him. When Carolina coach Matt Rhule phoned on Saturday to tell Fletcher the Panthers had picked him in the sixth round of the NFL Draft, Fletcher thought the call was to gauge his interest in signing as a rookie free agent after the draft. "I was on the phone with another team that was trying to get me to commit to a free-agent deal once the draft ended," Fletcher said. "And I'm trying to weight the things. I wanted to be in Carolina so bad, that I'm trying to figure out, 'How am I going to make that work?' And I got off that call and immediately got a call from a Charlotte number, and I was like, 'There's no way.' "And answered it, and it was coach Rhule, and he was like, 'Are you coming?' And I was, 'Well, I'm hoping.' And he was, 'No, no, no, brother. I just drafted you.' I will remember that moment for the rest of my life, I assure you. There was a lot of yelling and a lot of screaming." One long snapper had been chosen in each of the previous six NFL drafts, so Fletcher didn't have high hopes of being among the 259 players picked this year. But he wanted to join the Panthers after working with the Carolina coaching staff at the Reese's Senior Bowl in Mobile in January. - Birmingham News

  Former Alabama tight end Miller Forristall was not picked in the 2021 NFL draft but is signing with the Tennessee Titans as a free agent, NFL Network reported. Forristall spent five seasons (2016-20) at Alabama, setting career highs last season with 23 catches for 253 yards. He was not among Alabama's invites to the NFL combine, which was not held in its traditional format this spring, but took part in pro day workouts with quarterback Mac Jones last month. He joins teammate Dylan Moses, a projected mid-round pick, in undrafted Alabama players agreeing to deals Saturday evening. Moses is joining the Jaguars. - Birmingham News

  05/02/21 - Alex Leatherwood, Sr/2021, Alabama, 6-5, 312 (DS#5 OT) + More +

  Under general manager Mike Mayock, the Las Vegas Raiders have marched to the beat of their own drummer in the NFL Draft. The selection of Clemson defensive end Clelin Ferrell with the fourth choice in the 2019 draft came under immediate fire, and second-guessing came with the addition of Ohio State cornerback Damon Arnette at No. 19 last year, too. After Mayock chose Alabama offensive tackle Alex Leatherwood with the 17th choice in the NFL Draft on Thursday night, he said he "knew it would be controversial. Completely understand that." "When we made the pick, we had the TVs on," Mayock said, "and, obviously, I forget which group it was, but they were saying, 'They could have had him in the second round and blah, blah, blah,' so I understand that the fan base is going to listen to that and the fan base is going to question it."

The Detroit Lions made the first pick of an offensive tackle on Thursday night by choosing Oregon's Penei Sewell at No. 7. Northwestern's Rashawn Slater went next at No. 13 to the Los Angeles Chargers. The Raiders took Leatherwood over Virginia Tech's Christian Darrisaw, who went to the Minnesota Vikings at No. 23, as well as Oklahoma State's Teven Jenkins, whom nfl.com rated as a better pro prospect than Leatherwood. Leatherwood said he didn't buy into the second-round tag placed on him by so many talent evaluators and mock drafters. "By no means was I surprised," Leatherwood said about being the 17th selection. "I'm not the type of dude to fall into the media hype, the mock drafts and all that good stuff, so I just did what I could do well, you know what I mean? Did the best that I could do and trusted the process, and it all went great. - Birmingham News

  Move over Miami. You have company. Alabama tied the Hurricanes 2004 record for the most first-round NFL draft picks Thursday when six Crimson Tide products heard their names called. Najee Harris to Pittsburgh tied the record with the 24th overall pick but he was the last name called. Christian Barmore was left in the green room in Cleveland after receiving multiple first-round projections. He'll be selected in the second or third-round Friday along with former teammates Landon Dickerson with Deonte Brown and Dylan Moses also on the board.

"It makes me feel like a proud papa," a smiling Nick Saban said on the ABC broadcast when asked about tying the record with six. Before Thursday, the most first-round picks in a given season for Alabama was four -- a number achieved five times (2020, 2018, 2017, 2012 and 2011). Miami in 2004 saw its six players taken in the first 21 picks. It started with Sean Taylor at No. 5 and included other future stars like Jonathan Vilma (No. 12), D.J. Williams (No. 17) and Vince Wilfork (No. 21). - Birmingham News

  05/01/21 - *Mac Jones, rJr/2021, Alabama, 6-3, 217 (DS#3 QB) + More +

  Leading into the NFL Draft, there was reason to believe that Alabama quarterback Mac Jones would be the third player picked on Thursday night. Instead, the San Francisco 49ers chose North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance at No. 3, and Jones didn't hear his name called until No. 15, when he went to the New England Patriots. And that was fine by Jones. "At the end of the day, you kind of want to just get the right fit," Jones told reporters after being picked, "and I feel like, secretly, I really wanted to go to the Patriots all along, so I'm actually really happy that it happened. "But it doesn't really matter. You get picked. You got to take the opportunity and take advantage of it and learn the new system, learn the new coaches, learn the new culture, and coach (Bill) Belichick's done a great job establishing that throughout his time in New England."

Jones enters the NFL after helping Alabama win the 2020 CFP national championship with an undefeated season. That was the sixth national title for coach Nick Saban at Alabama. By joining Belichick in New England, Jones goes to a coach who has won six Super Bowls with the Patriots. "New England's just a great place," Jones said. "In watching them the past years, they do everything right. It's all about the team. That's kind of what I grew up knowing is being a good teammate, and, then, obviously winning it comes down to winning football games, and New England's done that. But they don't look in the past, they just look in the future … so I'm just looking forward to getting in there and meeting my new teammates and seeing what happens from there." - Birmingham News

  04/30/21 - Henry Too Too, Sr/2023, Alabama, 6-1, 227 (DS#3 ILB) + More +

  Could former Tennessee linebacker Henry To'o To'o continue Ohio State football's streak of bringing in immediate-impact transfers? The NCAA's long-await transfer reform could make that possible - with an assist from the even-slower-to-act Southeastern Conference. In each of the past two seasons, the Buckeyes struck gold with a graduate transfer - offensive lineman Jonah Jackson in 2019 and running back Trey Sermon in 2020. Justin Fields needed the NCAA's previous eligibility loophole - a waiver application - to make his immediate impact in 2019. The landscape officially changed Wednesday. The Division I Board of Governors ratified legislation granting immediate eligibility for first-time transfers. (Those transferring for a second time can still use the waiver process.) That development, while not unexpected, comes at a crucial moment for Ohio State. To'o To'o has previously been linked to Alabama and Ohio State as his most likely destinations. - Cleveland Plain Dealer
