At Alabama’s media day ahead of the national championship game last weekend, Dan Enos was never alone. Reporters encircled him, hanging on his every word. He spoke on many subjects, from the bounceback-ability of his previously injured star quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, to the evolution of Alabama’s offense. He skirted around questions about his reported and expected promotion as the Crimson Tide’s offensive coordinator, and he seemed to talk more about one specific topic than any other: the progression and future of backup quarterback Jalen Hurts. How will you survive without him in your position room?
Maybe he won’t have to.
