I’ve kept the new coffee shop on 15th Street in business this past week. Alabama’s new morning practices have been a shock to the system for me and my usual night-owl routine.

While players have focused on remaining hydrated during the first week of preseason camp, I’ve been pumping my body with as much caffeine as it can handle. At $6 a pop, it’s a race to see whether my kidneys or wallet will give out first.

In all seriousness, I can’t complain about Alabama’s new preseason policies. While I might prefer Nick Saban’s practice times over Kalen DeBoer’s, the access under the Tide’s new regime is far more favorable than it was previously.

In today’s column, I’m emptying the Week 1 notebook to provide 10 things that have stood out to me during camp.
