Alabama football increased its focus to reclaim the crown as national champions with the coaching hires it made in the offseason.
Nick Saban pulled in four on-field assistants – Eric Wolford, Travaris Robinson, Coleman Hutzler, and Joe Cox – and several off-field analysts. He enters his 16th season as Alabama’s head football coach, and Saban’s focus is on winning national championship No. 8 for his career.
Todd Grantham and Zach Mettenberger competed against Saban.
