TUSCALOOSA | As much as anyone who is a contributing member of the University of Alabama defense, Nick Gentry has waited his turn.

Now in his fifth year at the Capstone, the senior from Prattville has built himself a significant role on the nation's top defense as an interior pass rusher, primarily on third downs.

It didn't come easily.

Gentry redshirted in 2007 and spent plenty of time on the sidelines thereafter. Yet his role has increased incrementally each season.

This season, he's not only playing, but producing.

"Nick really gives us a real presence inside in pass rush. He's very quick and explosive," said UA coach Nick Saban. "For the 15-20 plays that he plays in about every game, his production has been really, really good."

I think Nick has been underrated. When he’s in, it seems like he is always disrupting the QB. I’ve been impressed by his play last year and this year. It just goes back to the depth this defense has.
