He has multiple packages ready for Alabama’s defense this season, but how many of those will Kane Wommack feature this former five-star prospect in?

Residents of Montgomery (Ala.) and Crimson Tide are excited to see Qua Russaw.

The game-wrecking linebacker was one-half of Carver High School’s dynamic duo on defense. Russaw and James Smith (defensive lineman) both came in Alabama’s 2023 signing class as five stars. Russaw was one of the top outside linebackers in the nation and became a problem in fall camp, especially with his abilities off the edge in two scrimmages.
