Christian Harris and Henry To’oto’o are serious about having the Crimson Tide elite on defense.
To’oto’o comes in from the University of Tennessee, while Harris enters his junior season at Alabama. This is the duo Tide fans want at inside linebacker, especially when it comes to creating big plays. Ken Anio, the director for F3 Elite Organization, has been putting in work with Harris and To’oto’o. When he has not been coaching his 7-on-7 team, Anio’s focus shifts to Alabama’s linebackers being in the best shape for the fall. He shared photos to Twitter of his efforts with Harris and To’oto’o as both are locked in for the Tide.
