The calendar says Thursday, but this was a Monday for the Alabama football team. It officially began game-plan preparation for Louisville in the Sept. 1 opener with a practice structured like the ones Alabama typically has on Mondays.

What we saw:

-- This was a shorter-than-normal media viewing period.

-- Najee Harris was again in a black jersey working with head athletic trainer Jeff Allen instead of the running backs. This is the second straight day that was spotted. Saban previously said Harris was expected to be fine for the Louisville game.

-- Starting QB: Still TBD.

-- Players were in helmets and shoulder pads instead of the full gear.

-- It was a little more crowded out there with walk-ons joining the roster after classes started Wednesday.

-- I'm still interested to see how quickly Ale Kaho can become part of the game plan. He's an athletic looking middle linebacker. Impressed with the bursts of speed we can observe in our short viewing windows.

-- There was one student on their balcony across the street at the apartment building but it looked like they were doing homework instead of watching any of the practice. Read more on that.

-- You know it's almost time for the season when the Alabama marching band is heard practicing in the background.

-- Nick Saban will meet with the media after practice. Stay tuned for that.
