George Teague, an Alabama football legend, is proud of the committed athletes to the Crimson Tide that want to continue representing Bama Psi Phi. Teague, a former safety for Alabama, was an All-American and All-SEC selection for the Tide’s national championship team in 1992 under Coach Gene Stallings. He posted six interceptions (tied for SEC lead) in 1992 and finished his career with 14 picks. Teague was a first-round selection in the 1993 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers and played for the Packers, Atlanta Falcons, Dallas Cowboys, Miami Dolphins, and Cowboys again. He is in the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame for his excellence as an athlete for the Crimson Tide and is an NFL analyst. Teague has his podcast, Teague’s Take, which he enjoys breaking down film on the Cowboys and Alabama football. He’s excited to see what is next to come for his Alma mater.

Tide fans, like Teague, are ready to see what spring practice looks like under Coach Kalen DeBoer.
