A much more pleased Nick Saban took the podium Saturday after Alabama’s final scrimmage of fall camp.
He discussed Seth McLaughlin (offensive lineman) and Eli Ricks (cornerback) getting held out, but he was happy with the improvement from the wide receivers. Coach Saban is excited about the running back and confirmed that freshman Emmanuel Henderson is getting reps at receiver. Several credible sources brought more information to Touchdown Alabama Magazine from the scrimmage.
All the inside nuggets are below.
