Nick Saban allows his offensive and defensive coordinators to speak twice a year at the University of Alabama.
The first opportunity comes during the first week of August as the Crimson Tide begins preseason camp. Fans were excited to hear the perspective of Saban and Bill O’Brien on Sunday, but a confident Pete Golding took the podium with much swagger.
Golding enters his fifth season on Saban’s staff (fourth as defensive coordinator) and finally possesses a group that excites him.
As a native of Hammond, La., he came through the ranks as a small school defensive backs coach, coordinator, and linebackers coach.
