Alabama Crimson Tide

A former defensive tackle at the University of Alabama pleaded guilty Monday to defrauding investors of millions of dollars by putting on makeup and wigs to impersonate NFL players.

The NFL draft begins tonight. A number of former members of the Crimson Tide will be in the running, two names are predicted to go in the first round.

Indiana defensive coordinator Bryant Haines heard the comments from former Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson about the teams' matchup last season in the Rose Bowl and responded with his own observations this week, all ahead of this month's NFL draft.

This might be the best endorsement Keelon Russell could get in his case to be Alabama's next starting quarterback…

Alabama didn't need to turn to the transfer portal or the recruiting trail to find a replacement for potential first-round draft pick Ty Simpson. The Crimson Tide had two options waiting for a shot. Austin Mack and Keelon Russell, the two guys Simpson beat out to start last fall, have spent spring practice vying for the job.

Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne announced Sunday he has finalized a contract extension with basketball coach Nate Oats. Byrne announced on social media Oats has signed the deal “that will make him one of the top five compensated men's basketball coaches in the country.”

Alabama is set to begin March Madness on Friday against Hofstra. The Crimson Tide will face the Pride during round one without Aden Holloway. The point guard is facing felony drug charges and more details are reportedly emerging in his case.

The state’s highest court issued its decision after Crimson Tide Center Charles Bediako requested an injunction that would enable him to continue playing with Alabama during the finals games of the season, and “March Madness.”

Wearing a protective boot earlier this week, Arkansas star Darius Acuff Jr. snapped back when coach John Calipari asked if he was going to miss Wednesday night's game at Alabama. “He said, ‘Are you nuts?'” Calipari recalled.

An Alabama circuit judge on Monday denied Alabama basketball player Charles Bediako’s motion for a preliminary injunction, ending the 7-foot center's collegiate eligibility and his season with the Crimson Tide.
