One of the college football offseason’s more intriguing storylines to follow so far has been surrounding Alabama, where the Crimson Tide saw a significant amount of roster turnover after the retirement of head coach Nick Saban.
With a majority of those moves coming via the transfer portal, many notable names departed Tuscaloosa to play for new programs, some of which were a little more well-known such as Caleb Downs to Ohio State. Well, one of the aforementioned names made headlines once again with the transfer portal on Tuesday night, as Kadyn Proctor is reportedly set to re-enter the portal and commit back to Alabama.
Proctor, who previously transferred to Iowa earlier this offseason, started in every game at left tackle for Alabama a year ago as a true freshman and was set to maintain the starting spot assuming he had stayed in Tuscaloosa.
An Iowa native, Proctor was the nation’s No. 5 overall prospect in the 2023 class according to the 247Sports Composite recruiting rankings, as well as the top offensive tackle nationally. Proctor was also the nation’s No. 2 rated offseason transfer according to 247Sports, trailing only the aforementioned Downs.
The spring transfer portal window is set to open in April, and according to a report from On3’s Hayes Fawcett, will officially re-enroll at Alabama this spring.
