Alphonse Taylor, a two-time national champion in 2012 and 2015, is the latest member of the Alma Bryant High School football coaching staff. The school announced the news via Twitter on Thursday. Taylor, a Mobile (Ala.) native, came to the Crimson Tide in its 2012 signing class as a four-star. He blocked for three 3,000-yard quarterbacks — AJ McCarron, Blake Sims, and Jacob Coker — and a Heisman Trophy winner (Derrick Henry). Alma Bryant is getting someone ready to mentor athletes with Taylor.
