Some Alabama fans are calling him the most valuable defensive player of the season.
Two types of players exist at the University of Alabama for football: those who are fine with being patient and those who are prepared to quickly snatch opportunities. While most considered Malachi Moore to be the former, the talented true freshman immediately showed he is the latter. He has worked on this craft his entire life and when the lights are on, he dominates.
Defensively, the Crimson Tide is gradually making improvements.
Nick Saban is seeing the team get better each week, but its critical plays have come from Moore.
