July 16, 2025; Atlanta, GA, USA; Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer is readied for an interview with ESPN during SEC Media Days at the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta.

Kalen DeBoer was not hired to be a continuation of the Nick Saban era but to build his own program after winning so much elsewhere.

DeBoer’s first year at Alabama included four losses, and it had been a while since that happened in Tuscaloosa.

Alabama will be picked to finish toward the top of the SEC and DeBoer took to the main podium in Atlanta on Wednesday.
