Aside from discussing Saban’s influence, JC Latham gives Tyler Booker of Alabama advice on the NFL selection process….
The Trench King held court inside a corner room in downtown Detroit’s sprawling One Campus Martius complex. Clad in a sparkling black suit and tight Tennesse Titans cap, JC Latham sat down as the latest member of the NFL draft class of 2024.
He had watched Deion Sanders become Primetime and he wanted a nickname of his own, Latham explained in his post-draft news conference. The offensive and defensive lines are referred to as the
“trench” where the game is won; after making his name as a prospect on both sides of that battle, Latham deemed himself ruler of the line of scrimmage. He showed it at IMG (Fla.) Academy, then at Tuscaloosa, then proved it to new Titans head coach Brian Callahan and second-year general manager Ron Carthon.
