People lost loved ones and possessions, and Crimson Tide players wanted to help. Malachi Moore, Tyler Booker, and Terrence Ferguson were three players in a video from Alabama football’s Twitter account helping those in need. Players took donations and provided water and groceries to families that were affected by the storms. Coach Nick Saban reminds his players that people may not always remember what you did on the field, but they will remember what you did for them in a time of need. 

The Tide stepped up for its community before starting spring practice soon.
