Reichard expressed to yours truly that it was a dream of his to have the opportunity to play football at the University of Alabama.
“I’ve always dreamed about it and it is a blessing,” Reichard said.
Everyone knows of the kicking woes the Tide have had over the last couple of seasons, which makes this commitment such a huge one. Kickers are often called upon during the most pressure-filled situations and having a great one goes over well for any team. The Tide has not been very lucky in the kicking game as of late, but have fortunately been able to work around it. Reichard will have a chance to change this when he gets his opportunity.
Alabama continues its roll on the recruiting trail as they rack up some elite talent. Stay on the lookout for more big moves form the Tide. Touchdown Alabama Magazine will keep you updated.
