Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin speaks to Alabama football team

On Tuesday, the Alabama football team welcomed the Mayor Randall Woodfin, into its facilities as a guest speaker for the team.

The 30th mayor of Birmingham, AL, gave a message to the team on resilience and gratitude in life as he shared the news on his Twitter account.

“You’re never to young to be a leader — to be a champion,” Woodfin wrote in a social media post. “Be grateful and make the most of your opportunity. That’s what coach Saban expects from each one of you that walks through those doors.”

A constant message Saban has given the Crimson Tide up to this point in the season is to honor and respect winning.
