2020 Alabama Spring Football Eligibility Tracker

Crimson Tide appears to be heading into the spring with 78 scholarship players

Alabama Athletics

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It's taken a while, but the University of Alabama roster appears to be set heading into spring practices, after which more coming and going by players is expected. 

With 13 early enrollees already on campus, and another 12 plus tight end transfer Carl Tucker from North Carolina expected over the summer, more movement isn't just expected, but a certainty.  

By our count, Alabama has 78 players on the roster heading into the spring. 

That doesn’t include Nigel Knott, the defensive back who has posted on social media that he’s been medically cleared to return to football, or players who have transferred or announced their intention to transfer. 

UPDATE: Alabama made changes to its online roster Monday night and redshirt junior interior linebacker Markail Benton was no longer listed.

Alabama doesn't release scholarship information, so there's no way to confirm everyone's status.

Nevertheless, here’s a look at each position group, with each player’s signing class, number of stars — 1-5, 5 being the best — and overall ranking by 247Sports composite.
