He and his family will have a decision to make after this season, but Michael Locksley has been exactly what Nick Saban and Alabama football needed on offense.
After serving as an offensive analysts, wide receivers’ coach and co-offensive coordinator, the Maryland native took the reins at play caller and has coached unarguably the most entertaining group of elite stars in Crimson Tide history. With Locksley working the magic, the Tide carries the nation’s third-ranked scoring offense (48.7 ppg) and third-ranked total offense (541.5 ypg).
He has scripted a unit that tallies six 50-point games and two 60-point contests, while posting a conversion rate of 54.
