The Alabama football team has added former top-100 recruit King Mack through the transfer portal. Mack was a four-star recruit in the 2023 recruiting class, ranking 86th overall and sixth overall, while he is the 57th ranked transfer and fourth ranked safety.

Mack appeared in 13 games as a true freshman, making three total tackles, largely on special teams.
The Alabama Football team has overhauled its secondary through the transfer portal after losing numerous key players during the Winter Transfer Window. Alabama Football currently boasts two new transfer cornerbacks, Domani Jackson and DaShawn Jones, as well as transfer safeties King Mack, Keon Sabb, and Kam Howard.
The new transfers will provide the Alabama Football team with an experienced bunch of secondary players, as Malachi Moore was the only returnee. This also allows time for the talented bunch of freshman corners to grow on defense.
Kalen DeBoer and Kane Wommack faced a difficult job as the majority of the secondary players left for the NFL Draft, while their replacements left through the transfer portal. The coaching staff has brought in a group of transfers who might form one of the strongest secondary units in the country.
Massive success of a Spring for Alabama Football
This spring, the Alabama football team had only a few players enter the transfer portal, and they were all reserve players. While just losing reserves, the squad added five players who will most likely start or play significant roles in 2024. Kalen DeBoer currently appears to have all of the pieces in place for his first season in Tuscaloosa, and the roster is talented enough to repeat as SEC champions and return to the College Football Playoff.
