The Alabama Crimson Tide knows there is more than one way to skin a cat. Head coach Nick Saban signed the No. 2 rated recruiting class in the 2022 class as well as loaded up in the transfer portal.
Knowing the team needed to address a few positions immediately, the Tide add three players through the portal. According to Rich Cirmieniello of College Football News, two Alabama newcomers were among the all-transfer first team.
Jahmyr Gibbs, Running Back
It is no small task for the former Yellow Jackets running back. Gibbs will replace the outgoing Brian Robinson Jr, who racked up 1,343 yards and 14 rushing touchdowns in 2021. He added two more receiving touchdowns to his total as well.
The redshirt sophomore from Georgia Tech averaged 5.2 yards per attempt last season. Gibbs rushed for 746 yards with six total touchdowns. He should have plenty of opportunities in this offense with so much focus being placed on Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Bryce Young.
