The four-star prospect from Huntsville is listed as the Crimson Tide's third-string left tackle, but can also play other positions on the offensive line.

Grant Hill to play this week...

« Reply #1 on: October 03, 2013, 09:34:31 PM »

Was planned to play last week but was pretty sick and didn't dress. Saban implied he was putting pressure on the first teamers (at RT I'd assume).

I thought he'd be a starter by year 2. Very underrated talent coming out of Huntsville, IMO.

We might see some scout team players out there on Saturday by the time the game is over.

I thought you were talking about the former Duke & NBA BB player.

At this point, I wasn't really expecting to see anymore of the true freshmen play that haven't already.

With center Ryan Kelly out for the next few weeks with a knee injury and junior Chad Lindsay serving as his replacement, Saban said right guard Anthony Steen is also capable of playing center.

"If there's a guard that's coming along that's a really good player, I'm not a guy that's going to sit here with a bad hand ... if we can make improvements on our team," Saban said...

Looks like the redshirt is history. Grant Hill may be the key that this O-line has been seeking.
