The biggest offseason get for Saban may be the retention of Strength and Conditioning Coach, Scott Cochran.
Alabama's iconic Strength & Conditioning Coordinator (and unofficial Alabama mascot,) Scott Cochran is staying with the Tide.
Many speculated that he would join Coach Smart's staff at Georgia, given their friendship and the close family ties between the two. In the end, however, it was a business decision -- and, not more than a little loyalty to the coach who gave him his shot and to the fans who have made him a household name.
This is huge news.
