Notes from Wed Press Conference, courtesy of al.com
-- It's not just younger players. The vets need to step up more as well, Saban said.
-- INJURY UPDATE: Dakota Ball broke his foot. It will be 6-8 weeks before he can be back.
-- Saban asked about Trent Richardson trade. He said he hopes this is a good move for him. "The guy was a fantastic player here."
-- Asked about moving Brandon Greene to TE, Saban said they knew it would be a work in progress, but gave the team two big guys to play TE.
-- OJ Howard needs to get a little bigger and stronger, but his athleticism is a real asset, Saban said.
-- Teams aren't guarding Amari Cooper much differently than in the past, Saban said.
-- AJ McCarron can decide to change plays as part of the packaging of the play.
-- Saban said he used to call his own plays as a sophomore high school quarterback.
-- "I wish players would give us more information in a game."
-- There are a lot of similarities in the offense Jim McElwain runs at Colorado State and the one he had at Alabama. He uses a lot of formations to make things difficult on defenses.
-- Anthony Steen practiced today and Saban expects him to play Saturday. He was injured Saturday.
