McElwain calls shots for Tide's offense
Q: There's spring ball, and there's spring ball in Alabama. Tell us what that's like.

A: I gotta tell you, coming out into that stadium when we had our spring game. I don't know what they listed it this year - 75,000 to 80,000 fans - but that's a far stretch from Dornblaser, where we used to play when I was at Missoula Sentinel. I thought maybe there was a NASCAR event going on, but they were there to see spring practice. That just shows you the passion people here have for their football and for their Crimson Tide.

Roll Tide!
