Daniel Hill Dominates Alabama's RB Room | Alabama Crimson Tide Football News

Daniel Hill is proving himself as Alabama’s go-to running back, exploding for 104 yards and a touchdown on just 18 carries against Kentucky—when the team needed tough yards, he delivered. Coach Kalen DeBoer and OC Ryan Grubb praised his power, footwork, and decision-making, calling him the “hot hand” who earned every snap through relentless work ethic. Still, DeBoer is pushing younger backs EJ Crowell and Trae’shawn Brown to step up, while AK Dear’s imminent return from injury adds even more depth and competition. With Hill’s consistency and the talent pool behind him, the Tide’s rushing attack is poised for big things. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
