As we continue through the offseason, Roll Tide Wire has decided to bring fans a quick snapshot of each scholarship player listed on Alabama’s 2020 football roster.
Each day, we’ll release anywhere from 2-4 player profiles giving fans a glimpse into the players who will be available this upcoming season. Whether that’s size, classification, hometowns or recruiting rankings coming out of high school, we’ve got you covered.
Also included in each article is a quick recap letting you know what to expect from that player for the upcoming 2020 season and beyond.
Next up on the list is junior Ale Kaho out of Reno (Nev.).
Ale Kaho, Linebacker
Height: 6-1 / Weight: 228
Class: Junior
Hometown: Reno (Nev.)
High School: Reno High School
HS ranking (247Sports): 4-star / No. 133 overall / No. 7 ILB / No. 4 NV
HS ranking (Rivals): 4-star / No. 82 overall / No. 8 ILB / No. 4 NV
Analysis: Alabama fans are still waiting for Ale Kaho to take the next step in his development and become the playmaking inside linebacker he was brought in to be. But while the wait continues, the Reno (Nev.) native has been an impact player on special teams.
His biggest play came on a blocked punt against Ole Miss during the 2019 season which resulted in Kaho coming away with a special teams touchdown.
There’s still work left to be done in regards to Kaho playing on the defense, as he tends to be a little too aggressive at times, but he still has a needed skillset that could translate into big-time production.
