PHOTO GALLERY: Alabama’s start to spring practice

The Kalen DeBoer era is underway in Tuscaloosa. Check out the top photos from Alabama football’s start to spring practice.

A new era has begun in Tuscaloosa led by Nick Saban’s successor, Kalen DeBoer. Reality has set in that the legendary head coach has retired and the Crimson Tide is under new direction as spring football practices have begun.

Plenty of time sits in between today and the team’s first game of the 2024 season, but there is much to get done. DeBoer is still in the early stages of figuring out the roster and will have to revisit it after the spring transfer portal window opens and closes.

For now, returning players and newcomers are answering to DeBoer and the brand-new staff, which features only a handful of returning coaches.

Below are the top images so far from the first few spring practices that have taken place, which show the coaches in action and players training hard to maintain the Crimson Tide’s high expectations and national championship-winning standard.
