Countdown to the Crimson Tide's Season Opener:
206 days
On This Date in Crimson Tide History
February 9, 1942: Coming off a Cotton Bowl win, Alabama had 54 players report for spring practices. Coach Frank Thomas noted that with the escalation of World War II he didn’t know if the Crimson Tide would field a team in the fall. If it did, the top returning players were expected to be Al Sabo, George Weeks, Don Whitmire, Joe Domnanovich and Russ Craft. — Bryant Museum
Crimson Tide Quote of the Day
”Big Daddy”— The gravestone of Don Whitmire at Arlington National Cemetery. As a rear admiral the All-American tackle at Alabama (1941-1942) and Navy (1943-1944) directed the evacuation of Saigon at the end of the Vietnam War in 1975.
