Isaiah Bond to enter portal as first post-Saban transfer

Alabama wide receiver Isaiah Bond may not be sticking around for the next head coach at the University of Alabama. According to Nick Kelly of the Tuscaloosa News, Bond has filed the paperwork necessary to enter the transfer portal and explore his options. According to Kelly, Bond’s name is not officially in the portal yet as of noon on Friday. Per new NCAA rules, when a coach resigns or is fired, players have a 30-day window to enter the transfer portal. It does not mean Bond couldn’t still return, but at the very least he is exploring his options. RELATED: Norvell or DeBoer? It might be down
