![MIKE BROCK An Alabama story that kept growing after the final whistle. For an offensive lineman, much of the work happens outside the spotlight. The responsibility is there on every snap, even when the recognition goes elsewhere. Mike Brock earned his place in that work, playing on Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant’s 1978 and 1979 national-championship teams and receiving All-SEC recognition. In 1979, he was a first-team All-SEC guard on another championship Alabama offensive line. [si] But his connection to Alabama did not end when his playing days were over. The Montgomery native earned his business and commerce degree in 1981, then graduated from the University of Alabama School of Law in 1984. During law school, he became the first recipient of the Alabama Athletics Department’s graduate scholarship. That opportunity helped connect two chapters of his life: the young man who played for Coach Bryant and the attorney he would become. His later career brought nationally recognized trial work with Kirkland & Ellis. Decades later, Brock returned to serve Alabama in another way. He joined the University of Alabama System Board of Trustees in 2020. On September 11, 2026, his fellow trustees elected him president pro tempore of the board. Mike Brock is living and remains actively connected to the university. The UA System’s September 2026 announcement identifies him as being of Montgomery, with a legal practice operating from offices in Montgomery and Washington, D.C. His story is a reminder that an Alabama football career can be the beginning of something much larger—not only championships remembered, but an education carried forward and an opportunity to serve. Recognizing Mike Brock: Crimson Tide champion, attorney, and university leader.
