Other athletics activities, including team and individual practices, meetings and other organized gatherings, whether required or voluntary, remain suspended through at least April 15. That means there is still hope for some spring football practices, though they are not guaranteed.
It ain’t over yet, but it isn’t looking good

I think this probably gives Bama an advantage because we will be better prepared than most
It may also give us an advantage by simply assuming all starters will make it through this Spring uninjured.

I think that is going to be the players responsibility. I guess it depends on how self motivated they are. Dr Rhea posted a tweet earlier saying "you know you are around some players hungry for greatness when you wake up to a bunch of texts asking you to study their sleep and workout data while they are on springbreak". The tweet got taken down pretty quick but it tells me these guys aren't just laying around being lazy

Tuberville likely doesn’t know that there’s a neighborhood in the Middle East that’s often overrun by Alabamians. There, his rival is not Sessions but Saban. On David Street, in the Old City of Jerusalem—a warren bustling with religious-souvenir stores, not far from the Western Wall—is a gift shop run by a Palestinian named Hani Imam. He took it over from his father, twenty years ago. As a young man, Imam spent a decade in the U.S., where he studied business at the University of Alabama. At first, he ran his shop the way his fellow tchotchke merchants ran theirs, but he felt himself pining for the American South, land of open spaces, barbecue, and Southeastern Conference football. Homesick, he put up a few photographs of the Crimson Tide and changed the shop’s name to Alabama: The Heart of Dixie. Afterward, he and the other Arab merchants on his street occasionally found their stalls mobbed by tourists from Alabama.
quote:
“But I ordered some prayer rugs that say ‘Alabama.’ ” The shop is tiny, accommodating only a few customers at a time, and the overflow of waiting Southerners helps the neighboring merchants. Imam has tried to educate and convert the other shopkeepers by showing them highlight reels of the team. “They think it’s a bunch of big guys beating the hell out of each other,” he said. “But a lot of them claim to be Alabama fans. A lot of my neighbors, whenever they see Americans, they’ll say, ‘Hey, man, Roll Tide!’ ”

Ballou has not yet had a lot of time with his new pupils in Tuscaloosa, Ala., because of the coronavirus crisis. [...] after that point, there will likely be limitations placed on the facilities around UA’s campus.
Kind of a shame that they won't be able to truly get their systems in place this Spring.
