Pete Golding is leaving his job as Alabama defensive coordinator for the same position at Ole Miss, sources told ESPN on Friday.
Golding has been at Alabama under Nick Saban since 2018 and has served as the Crimson Tide's defensive coordinator for the past four seasons. Golding will replace Chris Partridge as Ole Miss' defensive coordinator.
Sources told ESPN that Golding's decision to leave Alabama was his own and that he was not pushed out, but rather that he felt like this move was what was best for him and his family. An official announcement on Golding's hiring at Ole Miss is expected soon.
