OPINION: Why rotating offensive linemen during 2024 season can benefit Alabama in 2025

There were several things that stood out about Alabama’s coaching philosophies during the 2024 season. One thing that stood out in particular to me was the substitutions that took place along the offensive front.

Over the course of the season, Alabama offensive line coach Chris Kapilovic used a makeshift offensive line on the right side.

Oftentimes, redshirt juniors Jaeden Roberts and Geno VanDeMark were seen rotating at the right guard position. In addition, redshirt freshman Wilkin Formby and redshirt sophomore Elijah Pritchett split time at right tackle.

However you view it, Alabama struggled to find consistency along the offensive front.
