Many Bama fans were as worried, if not more, about Scott Cochran leaving Alabama for Georgia than they were about Kirby Smart. To other fans that may seem like madness, to worry about a strength and conditioning coach like that, but to Alabama fans it made perfect sense.
Scott Cochran has become more than just another coach at Alabama, he’s become part of the face and personality of the Saban staff. Nick Saban’s quiet and stern outlook is countered by the fun loving loud and brash Cochran. It’s easy to see why Scott Cochran has become a fan favorite.
