Bryant visited Bama over the weekend...
From their 247 board:
Malik Bryant was scheduled to visit Alabama two separate times earlier this year, both of which ended up not happening. Third time’s the charm, though, and the Crimson Tide didn’t disappoint the Orlando (Fla.) Jones standout.
“I really enjoyed that visit,” Bryant told BamaOnLine. “That was a unique visit. I can say they definitely separated themselves from all.”
Separated as in Bryant’s new leader?
“Possibly, I’m not sure yet,” Bryant replied.
The nation’s No. 2 linebacker and No. 35 overall player enjoyed and extended sit-down with Nick Saban on Friday.
“He was really just telling me I’ve got a great chance to come in there and be a potential first round draft pick with my skillset,” Bryant said. “He said if I continue to work and do the things that need to be done day in and day out, I have a great chance to be somebody one day. He was saying if I come through their system and do what needs to be done, I can definitely be somewhere one day.”
What was Bryant’s biggest takeaway from the weekend, his first impression of Alabama in person?
“How they take care of their players,” he said. “The amount of money they put in just to make sure their players stay healthy and make sure their players are getting the right treatment, things like that. That’s what really stuck out to me. That and just how much the players are really enjoying (being there).”
Bryant said he plans to take another unofficial to Bama in June and will workout there then. He is going to take 3 OVs in June and save two for the season; one of those will likely be to Alabama during the season
