Alabama football jersey rankings 36-40
No. 36: Mac Hereford
Mac Hereford has no stats for Alabama. However, there aren’t many historic players to wear this number at Alabama, and Hereford is certainly the best known. If you have a Twitter account, you probably have seen some of his Tweets. He has a passion for content creation, so he makes a lot of highlight reels and photo edits for his teammates. His contributions might not be between the hashmarks, but he still does a lot for the team with his personality and his content creation.
No. 37: Robert Lester
Robert Lester was a great coverage safety in college. He didn’t get a lot of tackles, but that wasn’t his job. His job was to eliminate the deep threat over the top, and he did this very well. He ended his college career with 14 interceptions in total. Even when you consider that number spread over four years, it’s very impressive.
No. 38: Glen Coffee
Glen Coffee was the running back before Mark Ingram. He was a rotational piece before his junior year, where he burst onto the scene. In his last season, he rushed for 1,383 yards and 10 touchdowns. He left the NFL after a short stint and went on a personal journey that saw him serve in the military and ministry.
No. 39: Levi Wallace
Levi Wallace has a very interesting story. He walked on after being spotted at an Intramural flag-football championship game. He was a benchwarmer for most of his college career until he finally got a chance to start as a senior. Once he started, Wallace became a star. He only got three interceptions, but that was partially because quarterbacks were too scared to throw on his side of the field. He was a fantastic corner with size. Due to the small sample size in college, he went undrafted. Once he got signed to Buffalo, they learned that they had a gem. He is now a key contributor with the Bills.
No. 40: Joshua McMillon
Joshua McMillon doesn’t have the resume that most linebackers have going into their senior year, but he has a great chance to be the starting linebacker beside Dylan Moses this season. If so, he could turn his college career around like Levi Wallace did when he was finally given a chance. That position will be contested, however. There are many young players that are hoping to fill in for that spot at linebacker.
