When speaking with the media, Alabama defensive lineman Tim Keenan III was asked about what he has seen from transfer linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green. Keenan offered some early praise for the former Colorado linebacker.

“He’s done a great job of managing the defense….having great poise, great communication when we’re in,” Keenan III said, “I can’t wait to see how he does.”

Hill-Green transferred from Colorado to Alabama this offseason. The Maryland native finished the 2024 season with a career-high 82 to go along with two sacks and two interceptions.
