    WATCH: Kalen DeBoer Keeps Hilarious Tradition From Nick Saban Era

    Nick Saban's final recruiting class was quite the spectacle as he signed the No. 2 group according to 247Sports that included multiple five-star recruits.

    Those freshmen are learning all about the Alabama standard whether they enrolled early in the spring or just began their college careers in the summer.  The roster is loaded with talent throughout the depth chart and these highly-touted young guys won't be handed anything.

    However, it is up to the veterans to bring the team together and take the younger players under their wings.

    There are plenty of different traditions that teams instill to show their freshmen how things roll in the college ranks, and the Crimson Tide put their young players to the test.

    Surrounded by the band and cheerleaders, the group of freshmen led by five-star wide receiver Ryan Williams did its best to sing 'Yea Alabama.'

    Following their first attempt, redshirt senior outside linebacker Que Robinson stepped in to get the group's rhythm on pace.

    Wide receivers coach JaMarcus Shephard is also getting accustomed to his new home as he bolted out some nice vocals in the video.

    Senior Kneeland Hibbett was fired up about the freshmen's performance and even gave the group a, "hell yeah."

    Robinson wasn't satisfied yet though as he enticed head coach Kalen DeBoer to have the freshmen, "run it back."

    Once the team took a bow for the completion of the song, quarterback Jalen Milroe showed off his leadership by closing out practice with a uniting message.

    "What we have here is a Bama family," Milroe said. "We're a big Bama family, we're all here together, we all love each other. Forget about me, I love you."
