O.J. Howard shares the reasons why he picked Alabama

If you were to ask every head coach in the country, what is the life blood of college football nearly all would give the same answer.

Recruiting.

And over the past decade plus, no head coach has done a better job of it that Nick Saban at Alabama.

How he gets all of these high caliber athletes to buy into the program is still a little light on specifics but former Alabama tight end O.J. Howard shared what made him want to make the move to Tuscaloosa.

“I would say, for me, just when I would come on my visits it just made me always feel like I was at home,” said Howard during an Alabama Football video titled “Why Bama”.
