Alabama’s Christopher Allen, Jarez Parks to dominate at OLB this season

With the news of Eyabi Anoma gone in full swing, Nick Saban is committed to having the players with a “team first” mentality ready to battle this season.

Although it hurts to lose an elite talent, the University of Alabama has two guys waiting in the wings that have been pushing for the moment. The spotlight now shines on Christopher Allen and Jarez Parks to have a say at outside linebacker, behind Terrell Lewis and Anfernee Jennings.

Allen, a redshirt sophomore, was a major recruit like Amona.

He came in the 2017 class with Dylan Moses as a four-star via University Lab School in Baton Rouge, La.
