Nothing challenges Alabama football quite like someone that played for the program.
On Friday of last week, former Crimson Tide safety Roman Harper was featured on In My Own Words with yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine. A native of Prattville, Ala., Harper attended the University of Alabama from 2002-05 and played three seasons in the secondary.
He was a force on the Tide’s 2005 defense and finished his career being sixth all-time in school history for total tackles (307). Harper did not win a Southeastern Conference title or a national championship; however, he set the building blocks in motion for what came with Nick Saban.
