Alabama will have to replace its star punter James Burnip next season. The Australian native exhausted his college eligibility following the conclusion of the 2024 season and will now be heading to the NFL. The question that remains in Tuscaloosa: Who will Alabama turn toward to replace Burnip in 2025?
The two obvious options have to be the two punters that the Alabama coaching staff signed as a part of the 2025 recruiting class. That is three-star punter Alex Asparuhov and Colorado School of Mines transfer punter Blake Doud.
Asparuhov hails from San Joaquin Memorial High School in Fresno, California.
