Alabama football’s coaching staff is being proactive with the spring transfer portal in full swing. 

Alabama has not lost a scholarship player to the transfer portal as of early Tuesday, April 22. This looks to be a good sign for the Tide after they concluded spring practice over a week ago. 

The Crimson Tide’s defensive coordinator Kane Wommack provided some insight into Alabama’s approach to the portal as a guest on 105.5 WNSP on Tuesday. 

“Coach(Kalen) DeBoer has done such a great job of being proactive on the front end,” Wommack said. “We’ve had numerous meetings with players and reached out to their families and representatives and all those things to kind of make sure we’re all on the same page so that we’re not surprised by anything. I think to this point, we’re in a really good place.”

Alabama is still shopping in the transfer portal with a major focus on building depth.
