TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama football held its third day of fall camp on Saturday. The Crimson Tide took Friday off after a successful first two days in the hot sun.

Here's a few things that BamaCentral noticed on Saturday morning:

Saturday Practice Observations:

  • True freshman wide receiver Lotzeir Brooks was in a black non-contact jersey and had a boot on his foot. Brooks was off to the side riding the stationary bike.
  • Defensive lineman Tim Keenan III was giving redshirt freshman Jeremiah Beaman some 1-on-1 coaching outside of their drill.
  • WOLF linebackers coach Christian Robinson was working with Justin Hill, staff seemingly expects a lot of the freshman.
  • Defensive line coach Freddie Roach was once again getting involved in the drills himself, showing a lot of energy.
  • Defensive backs coach Maurice Linguist was very animated, in particular on one play where he zeroed in on Utah transfer Cam Calhoun
  • Robinson remaining very involved in all the drills they’re doing, giving actual demonstrations on the fly if need be.
  • Colorado transfer Nikhai Hill-Green looks good. He’s a veteran but doesn’t seem like much of a learning curve for him at a new school.
  • The defensive backs ran a drop coverage drill as they located a ball in air while treading back. Safety Keon Sabb made a nice grab during it.
  • The wide receivers practiced staying low at the beginning of routes and then followed it by exploding forward.
  • The wide receivers also worked on their release off the line of scrimmage with wide receivers coach JaMarcus Shephard acting as the defensive back.
  • The three quarterbacks were throwing to the tight ends concurrently. They alternated between short, medium and long balls. Expected starter Ty Simpson made a couple of good throws during the drill.
  • The safeties participated in a drill that had the goal of keeping the receiver in front of them and preventing inside leverage.
