Coach Larry Blakeney, commended

This resolution (SJR 26) is a ceremonial commendation from the Alabama legislature honoring Troy University football coach Larry Blakeney for his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame (Class of 2025). It recognizes his achievements as Troy's winningest coach, his role in transitioning the program from Division II to Division I FBS, and his historic status as the first coach or player from Troy or the Sun Belt Conference to receive this honor. The resolution does not create new laws or affect any policies; it is purely a symbolic gesture of appreciation.
