Although the season opener against Kent State is still 42 days away, several of the Golden Flashes have already arrived in Alabama. A portion of the team traveled to Tuscaloosa to join players from the Alabama, Auburn and Auburn University Montgomery squads in helping with the tornado relief effort in the community of Holt. Coach Saban, a graduate of Kent State, stopped by yesterday on the way home from SEC Media Days. The homes the players helped with are being built by Habitat for Humanity through a donation by Nick and Terry Saban’s foundation, Nick’s Kids. You can see the story about Coach Saban's visit and the rebuilding effort over at the Tuscaloosa News. You can also check out the daily diary of the Kent State players on the school's athletics website.
