Episode Details

Keelon Russell is officially Alabama’s starting quarterback, named by the NIL collective after a fierce battle with Austin Mack — and he’s ready to lead the Crimson Tide into their season opener against East Carolina. A towering 6’3”, 207-pound playmaker from Texas, Russell flashed elite potential last year with big passing numbers and first-team reps in scrimmage. With Ty Simpson gone to the NFL, Russell’s physicality and poise make him the perfect fit to carry the offense into Bryant-Denny Stadium on September 5th. Mack, who also competed and has ties to the new coaching staff, will be watching closely as Alabama’s QB future takes shape.
