Rapper Plies shows appreciation for Alabama players and Nick Saban for racial injustice march

Alabama football created a lot of conversation on Monday and it was not on the field.

Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide’s student-athletes held a protest march for racial/social injustice from the Mal Moore Athletic Facility to Foster Auditorium on the University of Alabama campus. In showing his full support of his players, Saban led the line and was one of the speakers at the event. Despite some backlash on social media, many people showed appreciation toward the six-time national champion for being a leader among men.

Algernod Washington, better known as “Plies,” was one of them.
