Alabama linebacker Ale Kaho has entered the NCAA transfer portal.

The news was first reported by Matt Zenitz of Al.com.

During his three seasons at the Capstone, Kaho appeared in 40 games and recorded 33 total tackles, 14 solo stops, three blocked kicks, one fumble recovery and one blocked kick for a touchdown.

He played in 12 games during the Crimson Tide's 2020 national championship run, but mainly on special teams.

Kaho begin his college career at Washington before transferring to Alabama in the fall of 2018 as a late signee. He was considered by most recruiting services as a five-star prospect and one of the top overall players in the 2018 recruiting class.

Does he have to sit out the year or has that rule been brought in already?

Perhaps a name to keep an eye on. Some twitter action with O'Leary. Grad transfer/Super sixth year senior safety from SJSU. Three year starter, and the Spartans won the Mountain West last year.

Let's see if he ends up at SC. He was a Donte Williams guy out of HS.

I saw Webb back in 2015 when he was with ESB at Servite.

Marshall OLM Cain Madden in the portal. Was 2nd team AP All American, so he might be worth a look. 6-3 313 RG. Former walk on so looking at his old recruiting rankings won't tell us much.

I hope Kirby thinks all these transfers means he doesn’t have to change his coaching style. Talent has never been the problem and even with 2 more huge pieces it won’t make a difference if Kirby doesn’t change

What's up with the Vols? Was reading an article in The Athletic on the top 50 to enter the portal. Tennessee had 6 including the top 2 in Gray and To'o To'o.

Both players also (pretty much confirmed) received "happy meals". Could possibly be the players/school trying to distance themselves from the mess. But, yes, the athletic department is complete overall.

Chez Mellusi is transferring to Wisconsin. That's unfortunate, but I haven't seen much from him to indicate he's a major concern, and Wisconsin has a ton of issues on offense that don't center around RB.

Dale might have a different opinion, but I think Kirby puckers/gets too conservative in big games, and also hasn't been able to figure out the QB situation.

The QB thing is kind of similar to BK/ND, though Ian Book put ND ahead for a moment.

JT Daniels probably solves UGA's QB problem... now it's Kirby's turn to show that he'll let his offense stay aggressive in big games, rather than mismanaging key down/distance situations and letting opponents stick around too long.

I’d agree there are some BK similarities, where I think it gets worse for Kirby is the surrounding pieces are clearly better, let’s call D a wash but he’s had a 1st RD type RB this whole time and a way higher talent level of WR. Some here like Phil J but the “safe” QBs he’s chosen in Fromm and the walk on were in front of CLEAR studs in Fields and Daniels while the overall game plans have also been noticeably conservative to match. Overall I think the criticisms are similar but BKs circumstance might be more difficult whereas Kirby it feels like there’s no excuse for some of the decisions/result
