Liner was a member of Alabama's 2013 Signing Day class.  Originally committed to Auburn, he was a highly covetted prospect.  However, since arriving in Tuscaloosa he has had trouble cracking the rotation on a defensive line that has become one of the deepest talent-wise in the SEC.This season, his only stat was a tackle against Western Carolina.

Liner will likely transfer to finish out his eligibility.
