Alabama welcomes three players as new semester starts

Alabama’s search for top talent continues as recruiting season enters its final month.

But the Crimson Tide got three new players on campus when the new semester began on Wednesday.

Freshman Jermaine Preyear, a 5-11, 205-pound running back from Davidson High in Mobile, joined the team, along with Atlanta freshman offensive lineman Chase Warmack and junior college transfer James Carpenter, who is from Hephzibah, Ga., via Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College.
Preyear deferred entry last fall as he rehabbed shoulder surgery.

Kerry Murphy, the prized defensive lineman from Hoover who originally committed to Alabama in 2007, apparently must complete a second full year at Hargrave Military Academy as he attempts to qualify.
