The return of Kevin Steele has Crimson Tide supporters excited about that side of the football. He’s brought energy on defense, especially in the spring game. Alabama players were flying to the ball, making impactful plays, and having fun. Several players spoke during spring practice about how they have been enjoying Steele. He has a lot of knowledge on defenses and offenses in the Southeastern Conference. Steele, 65, knows what Nick Saban wants to do and looks forward to helping him get back on top.

In a recent video, the TDA management team broke down what makes Steele an upgrade from Golding.
