Running backs coach Burton Burns has been with Nick Saban at Alabama since Day 1.
The rest of the offensive staff? Not so much.
These days, the second-longest tenured offensive coach in Tuscaloosa is Brent Key, who was hired to lead the offensive line only prior to last season — 3,330 days after Saban’s introductory new conference in 2007.
You see, for all the talk about Lane Kiffin’s awkward goodbye and Steve Sarkisian’s swift exit, it’s worth noting just how different the entire offensive staff will be this season, not just coordinator.
