Matt Zenitz of al.com reports that the Minnesota Vikings are expected to hire Alabama cornerbacks coach Karl Scott as defensive backs coach. The hire is considered in the industry as a promotion.
Scott came to Alabama before the 2018 season after two seasons as the secondary coach at Texas Tech.
He is the fifth Tide assistant to bolt after the Championship Game. Steve Sarkisian, Jeff Banks, and Kyle Flood all fled for Texas while Charles Huff takes the head spot at Marshall. Keep track of the comings and goings of the Crimson Tide here.
