Alabama football returns a team in the fall that’s hungry for a national championship.
It has veteran leadership, but Crimson Tide fans are excited to see freshmen contribute.

A few young faces showed out in spring practice — including Justice Haynes, Caleb Downs, James Smith, Kadyn Proctor, and Dylan Lonergan. We may see a few freshmen have an impact on the team.

Touchdown Alabama Magazine proposed a question via Twitter on which offensive freshman are fans most excited to see. Haynes, a five-star running back, dominated the conversation, but a few other names were mentioned.

Kadyn Proctor starting at LT, or possibly RT, is what I must see. A top shelf LT is a must if Bama is gonna win the SEC West, SEC Championship, & National Championship. I won’t be confident unless Latham or Proctor win that job.
