Next in the countdown of the ten best players from the first decade of Cy Woods football... a true game-changing defensive back.
#7: Alfred "Bama" Pullom, DB, 2010-12
Alfred Pullom moved to Cy Woods from Alabama, which is how he got his nickname. Sometimes the origin story of a nickname is quite simple. Bama made the varsity as a sophomore in 2010 and eventually became a two-year starter at safety for the Cats and one of the top safeties in Texas. Together with Jamaul Tompkins, Bama was a part of the most feared secondary in Cy Woods history... they were the safeties, while Josh Holley and Deonte Davis locked opposing receivers down at cornerback.
After Cy Woods, Bama played three seasons at Baylor and played in two bowl games. He had an interception in the Cotton Bowl against Michigan State in 2014.
