Alabama football’s A-Day events will include at least one appearance from legendary former coach Nick Saban, who will address fans along with 2023 team captains Malachi Moore and Jalen Milroe at the Walk of Fame ceremony at Denny Chimes at 1 p.m. on April 13, the school announced.

The annual A-Day game under new coach Kalen DeBoer will kick off at 3 p.m.

The Walk of Fame features hand and cleat prints in concrete around Denny Chimes, where Moore and Milroe will be added in a wet-cement ceremony. UA’s other 2023 team captain, Dallas Turner, a top prospect for the 2024 NFL Draft, is not scheduled to appear.
