A new day dawns in Tuscaloosa with Alabama spring practice opening up on Monday.

For the first time in 17 years, there will be someone new patrolling the sidelines and behind the podium at the post-practice press conference.

There will be a lot of changes and adjustments to what players, fans and media alike will have to get used to, but there is fresh excitement in the air as the temperatures continue to warm up, and Alabama football starts life post-Nick Saban.
