Alabama coach Nick Saban needs a new offensive coordinator – again.
Tide coordinator Brian Daboll, who was hired last January after Steve Sarkisian left after less than a month on the job, was hired by the NFL’s Buffalo Bills. His departure comes less than a week after Alabama won the national title by rallying past Georgia.
Daboll’s departure means Alabama will have to replace both coordinators. Defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt was hired as Tennessee’s coach in December and finished out the season with the Tide.
Alabama’s new OC will be its fourth in about a year.
