The Alabama Crimson Tide and former offensive coordinator, Bill O’Brien, mutually decided to part ways this off-season after a disappointing 2022 season offensively. O’Brien will take on the same role with the New England Patriots in the NFL where he will be working with Mac Jones.
As for the Tide, Nick Saban decided that he wanted to go with Notre Dame offensive coordinator Tommy Rees as O’Brien’s replacement. Rees used to play quarterback at Notre Dame and was a part of the Irish team that got thumped by the Tide 42-14 in the 2012 national title.
