I first heard the name Altee Tenpenny about 10 years ago.
His aunt, a longtime friend and a sports aficionado, predicted that I would be hearing about her nephew in years to come. I’ve heard that many times about many people over the years, but in this case, she was right.
Altee Tenpenny began to get a name. After a sensational sophomore season at North Little Rock High School in Arkansas, he exploded onto the college football recruiting landscape as a big-time prospect.
He verbally committed to Alabama in January 2012 and signed his letter of intent with the Crimson Tide the following February.
