Tide No. 1 for rising European OL target Olaus Alinen

A likely soon-to-be household name in the class of 2023 — offensive tackle Olaus Alinen — visited Tuscaloosa on Tuesday for the second time. A few months ago the rising 6-foot-7, 315-pound lineman from Finland (now at The Loomis Chaffee School in Windsor, Conn.) camped in front of offensive line coach Doug Marrone, and earlier this month earned an offer from the Crimson Tide program.
