When you win 17 national championships in college football, you’re bound to have some historic players. That’s the conundrum Alabama football has had for decades. The Crimson Tide want to have a way to honor these players, but there are simply too many to count. Some get to cement their legacy in a footprint and handprint at Denny Chimes for being a team captain, but not every superstar gets to be a captain. If you win a championship, you get a plaque on the walk of champions, but that’s more of a team achievement. Coaches get statues, but there’s nothing like that for the dozens of players to come through at Alabama.
