Multiple sources tell BamaOnLine/247Sports that running back Altee Tenpenny and tight end Malcolm Faciane are no longer involved in football activities at the University of Alabama. Neither Tenpenny or Faciane are expected to be part of the 2015 Alabama roster.

Tenpenny was a highly decorated recruit coming out of North Little Rock High School (Arkansas) in 2013 and selected Alabama over instate rival Arkansas. He was rated #51 overall and the nation's #5 running back according to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite, but was never able to earn meaning snaps with the logjam at running back during his time in Tuscaloosa. Faciane, from Picayune, Mississippi was the nation's #6 rated tight end the class of 2011 and was also a reserve during his career at Alabama.

This was expected. They've both had off the field issues since coming to UA.

I though Tenpenny would transfer a year ago (said as much and was roasted)

Facaine never made much impact

Faciane already graduated and has never shown anything as a football player so I was expecting him to move on. Look for the same from Luatua.

Tenpenny was never that good even when he did play. I highly doubt he would've seen the field at Arkansas either. Didn't help that he had off the field issues.
