Who wants college sports this fall?? 🏈⚽️🏐🏃🏼♀️🏃🏿
Obviously not these people!! 🤦🏼♂️
We’ve got to do better than this for each other and our campus community. Please wear your masks!😷
Great win today over UCF for
@AlabamaWBB
! We're not ready to make it more than it was and schedule a Disney Parade...but we'll definitely take it.

Win over No. 1 in their backyard. Four wins over the top 25 … the growth and development of our team from week 1 to week 12. And not all schedules and conferences are created equal … the week-in and week-out in the SEC is the most challenging in the country.

Couldn’t fly back to Tuscaloosa after the
@AlabamaMBB
game because of fog 🌫️ so we are taking the bus back home. Trip just got a lot better when we stopped at the new

I know we are all heartbroken hearing the news about Cameron Luke Ratliff,

Fluff brought a positive attitude & energy to everything & everyone around him, especially
@AlabamaMBB
. He inspired all of us.
We will find an appropriate way to honor Fluff.

With this announcement, we've received a number of questions regarding capacity at Bryant-Denny for
@AlabamaFTBL
in 2021.
We are moving forward with plans to have a full stadium in the fall and will monitor medical guidelines as we have all along.

The University of Alabama, along with other campuses in the University of Alabama System, plans to return to traditional in-person instruction without restrictions on classroom capacity for Fall 2021, as announced today by the UA System.

Would have loved to play one more, but what a tournament for

Just received a call from
@CoachSampsonUH
, someone I’ve known since I was in high school. He sincerely apologized for how things ended after last night’s game in Coleman. He also called
@nate_oats
. Thanks Coach Sampson for reaching out.
Safety First!

It’s 12:10 pm central. Wrapping up loading the plane. We should arrive in Tuscaloosa APPROXIMATELY 4:00-4:30 pm central.
Great job last night by our team, coaches, staff and our fans.
It was the most electric I’ve seen Bryant-Denny and everyone did an incredible job creating the atmosphere.

Tough night but proud of our seniors, team and coaches.
SEC champs, 14 wins, Orange Bowl champs, senior class that went 55-4. Congrats also to Clemson.
Thank you for all of the support from our incredible fans.

As AD, you want to get to know as many of your 650 SAs as possible, but it is often challenging because of the sheer #'s.
However,
@Tuaamann
has been 1 of the most impactful I've been around both on & off the field. We look forward to watching his continued success.

Sad to hear the news of Walt Gary’s passing. He was always so full of joy and loved the Crimson Tide. We will miss seeing him around the department.

Incredible turnout by
@AlabamaFTBL
fans today for the
@CFBPlayoff
National Championship Celebration in Tuscaloosa. We believe over 40K turned out for the celebration.

We now have 16 misting 💦 fans that are being installed and tested at Bryant-Denny. Trying to secure 12 more for Ole Miss game.
We also have added a total of 6 more Water 💧 Monsters. Student concourses will go from 1 to 3 WM’s.

We are thrilled to announce a contract extension through 2027 with

He’s done an outstanding job with our
@AlabamaMBB
program and this shows the LONG-TERM commitment between both parties.

You wanna have students on campus but no football? There is no safer place on campus than our football facility , especially when students come back.

BIG CONGRATS to Coach Saban!
His leadership with our program this entire 2020 year has shown, once again, why he is one of the greatest coaches all time of any sport.
Congrats also to many
@AlabamaFTBL
SAs who were recognized by the
@SEC
for their incredible performances!
#RTR
Our thoughts & prayers are with Chris Stewart and his family. Chris is recovering from a serious medical procedure and all signs so far following surgery are positive.
#RollTideChris
Nick and Terry Saban knew they had to rebuild Alabama's football program in 2007.
They didn't know that one day they would rebuild lives too, one house at a time 🏠
What a journey and incredible accomplishment!
So proud of this team, the leadership of Coach Saban & everyone working tirelessly to play this season.
#RollTide
Congrats to UCLA.
Been around this a long time. This was a great team.
Petty, Herb & Reese changed the program & laid the foundation for even more success. Proud of
@nate_oats
& what the future holds.
#RollTide
Congratulations to
@AlabamaFTBL
on the win!
Also, as we shut things down at Bryant-Denny, I want to say thank you to our fans, students and staff. We know we have some things to iron out before the next game, but a lot of hard work by everyone to make today happen.
#RollTide
Congrats to our team, coaches and fans!
We appreciate all the hospitality shown by the
@CitrusBowl
staff and volunteers. They did a first class job.
Strong showing from our crowd! Thank you for being there once again!

I predict Oklahoma at No. 4. Remember, these ADs aren't exactly risk takers. They always make the safe choice. (Worth remembering committee member Frank Beamer can't advocate for OU or be in discussion. His son Shane is on Sooner staff.)
The
@lyft
driver I just had, Hussein, is a true inspiration.
He was an interpreter for the US Military in Iraq. He, his wife & child had to leave the country because they weren’t safe. They now have 3 kids living in Austin & are about to start their own biz. He loves the USA 🇺🇸
Proud of the leadership shown by our student-athletes as well as our coaches & staff to peacefully gather and show support for one another. Powerful and courageous messages delivered. Honored to be surrounded by such incredible people at
@UofAlabama
&
@UA_Athletics
.

You may have heard that we are having an intercollegiate tackle football game today in Tuscaloosa.
I think I may have two of my personal tickets left that aren't being used.
Should I do an

A lot of 🏈 still to play but just wanted to thank everyone that helped us make it through the 2020 home season.
Everyone has had to adjust including our team, coaches and staff.
I especially want to thank r fans, who have shown their incredible passion once again.
