11. RB Dee Hart, 9.9
Injuries, position changes and Alabama’s offensive style pre-Lane Kiffin all conspired to bring Hart’s Alabama career to an untimely end. Hart spent three years at Alabama, where the Tide never could find the perfect use for his track speed. Hart’s diminutive size proved to be an issue in SEC play, particularly since Alabama’s offensive system preferred pure power backs during those years. Hart was arrested for a minor drug offense in early 2014, but before coaches announced any discipline, Hart was able to graduate just a few months later and transfer without penalty to Colorado State. It was an odd decision given the Rams were running the same offense as the one in place at Alabama, but Hart thrived under Jim McElwain’s tutelage there and when McElwain left for Florida, Hart declared for the NFL Draft. He went undrafted, then signed and was subsequently released by the Miami Dolphins.

16. LB Brent Calloway, 9.8
Calloway’s recruitment and short stay in Alabama were both forever in turmoil. Calloway committed early to Alabama, then flipped to Auburn late in the process. But a last-minute turn of events put Calloway back in Alabama’s camp, where he signed with the Crimson Tide on Signing Day and touched off all sorts of allegations from both Auburn fans and Auburn-friendly elements of the state press in the process. No evidence of wrongdoing was ever found. But Calloway’s on-campus experience didn’t go smoothly. He was only briefly tried at his position of choice, running back, before bouncing around the depth chart and eventually landing at H-back. Just when it looked like he’d found his niche, Calloway – who had run afoul of team rules already – was arrested along with three other players in 2013. While the other three were all charged with robbery, Calloway’s charge was much less serious – use of a stolen credit card – but this combined with his previous issues was too much to ignore. He was released from the team, transferred to a junior college, but was arrested again in 2015 in Florence.

4. OT Aaron Douglas, 10.0
There are few more heartbreaking stories than that of Aaron Douglas, who began his college football career at Tennessee before leaving the Volunteer program after off-field troubles caught up with him. Alabama signed Douglas after a stint at Arizona Western Community College, but shortly after signing, Douglas was charged with DUI. Alabama, which viewed Douglas as a potential starting left tackle in 2011, elected to keep him on the team, and over the next few months, it appeared he had turned a corner in his personal life. Douglas battled Barrett Jones for the left tackle spot throughout spring, and post-spring information from inside the program suggested the coaches believed Douglas could take the job with a strong fall camp, allowing them to move Jones back to right guard. But on May 12, 2011, Douglas was found dead while on vacation in Florida of what the coroner’s report deemed to be an overdose of multiple drugs. The loss hit the team hard, perhaps harder than fans might have expected, and Douglas’ family continued to be a part of the Alabama program. His memory was honored at Alabama’s Senior Day the following year.
