Spring commencement for the University of Alabama is this weekend.

Several student-athletes will graduate with degrees, including a former Crimson Tide safety. Ronnie Harrison is a free agent in the National Football League. He got selected in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars after three seasons with the Crimson Tide. Harrison, a native of Tallahassee, Fla., came in Alabama’s 2015 signing class. He helped the Tide capture two College Football Playoff National Championships in 2015 and 2017 and two Southeastern Conference titles.
