Nick Saban has owned the transfer portal in college football in the last two offseasons.

He landed Jameson Williams and Henry To’oto’o in the summer of 2021, and Alabama has picked up four names this offseason.

The Crimson Tide has Jermaine Burton (wide receiver, Georgia), Jahmyr Gibbs (running back, Georgia Tech), Eli Ricks (defensive back, LSU), and Tyler Steen (offensive lineman, Vanderbilt). Alabama looks to return to the College Football Playoff in the fall and win a national championship. Coach Saban is dominating the portal, but is he officially done adding to this team?

Credible sources have confirmed to Touchdown Alabama Magazine that he is not.

The Tide is looking at another offensive lineman.

Saban said in press conferences that Alabama’s had a few players banged up, including two linemen that would miss the entire spring.

Amarius Mims is the latest name to watch for the Tide.
