When an Alabama native speaks on the University of Alabama football program, it hits different because Crimson Tide football is all it knows and cherishes.

Malachi Moore arrived to the Crimson Tide in 2020 recruiting class from Hewitt-Trussville (Ala.) High School, but the former four-star has become the heartbeat of Alabama's defense. He immediately became an impact player as a true freshman, helping the Tide to a Southeastern Conference Championship and a College Football Playoff National Championship in 2020.

Moore has faced adversity, but he never ran away from it. Nick Saban announced his retirement after 17 years of being Alabama's head coach, including four seasons with Moore, but the defensive back did not use it as an opportunity to transfer away. 

He saw his team come so close to winning a CFP National Championship in a year where many wrote Alabama off.

Moore has a message for the players that transferred away from Alabama, opponents for next season, and rival fans. He's partnered with "Yea Alabama," the official NIL entity for the Crimson Tide, to unveil his message. Moore's drive for next fall is found on a t-shirt that carried his passion from a matchup in the 2023 season. "If they ain't wearin' Crimson ... F'em."

"If they ain't wearin' Crimson" is now on a shirt with Moore's name and number on the back. 

Alabama fans can get by going on Yea Alabama and purchasing it.

The new slogan joins "LANK" (Let All Naysayers Know) and DOA (Death on Arrival) as a battle cry for players and fans for next season. Moore expects a marquee season in his fifth year, and he's prepared to roll over anyone standing in the Tide's way.
