There are only four heads on Mt Rushmore.
Sorry! OP must have assumed you boys already knew that.

Mine for all Alabama sports:
Bear Bryant
Nick Saban
Wimp Sanderson
Sarah Patterson (women's gymnastics)
Honorable mention:
Patrick Murphy (softball)
Edit: A strong argument could be made that C.M. Newton deserves Wimp's spot given that he laid a solid foundation for the success of Alabama basketball in the modern era and won more SEC regular season titles and had almost as much NCAA/NIT tournament success in the 1970s as Wimp did in the 80s and early 90s. Plus he didn't get let go from Alabama due to an off the court scandal like Wimp unfortunately did.

Not even the Walton family?
Broyles predates them and to be honest while the Walton family footed the bill for Bud Walton they mostly have spent their money on the business school and a shite ton of civic projects.
Do not get me wrong, the Walton family has been very generous (and made a ton of money doing so) to NW Arkansas and Columbia, MO. They are, however, kind of meh about sports. They donate, sure, but sports is not their focus.

4th spot is a toss up. Probably Cam, but you could make an argument for Shug, Dye, maybe even Joe Ciampi if you want to include women's basketball.

There's no doubt that CM deserves it over Wimp. Plus, CM deserves at least as much credit as Bryant and probably more for the integration of athletics at Alabama. Not merely signing Wendell Hudson, but starting five black players for the first time in 1973-74 was hugely significant.
He was also the president of USA Basketball for five years, and it was on his watch that the 1992 Dream Team...the only real Dream Team...was assembled and won the gold medal in Barcelona.
He was also the chair of the NCAA rules committee when the shot clock and 3 point shot were adopted.

I can't argue any of these but if it is MY final four on Mt Rushmore of Alabama Football, I am finding a way to include Sela Ward. Somehow.
