Alabama wide receiver says ‘If you don’t want to come to the University of Alabama, you don’t wanna be great’

The 2020 freshmen class for the University of Alabama football program is making a statement.

Since arriving on campus last week, the fresh faces have been developing chemistry with older players and impressing teammates with their playmaking abilities. Nick Saban has never been shy about starting or playing true freshmen, especially if they provide a “winning football” mindset to the team. Despite most people viewing last year as a bad one for the Crimson Tide, the school started nine true freshmen and 25 individuals overall saw action in games.

One freshman that’s creating a lot of buzz is Javon Baker.
