Alabama QB commit Mac Jones growing bond with new offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian

Mac Jones came away from his first meeting with new Alabama offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian feeling positive.

Sarkisian and fellow assistant Brent Key visited Jones last Friday. Jones, a four-star quarterback from Jacksonville, Fla., has been committed to Alabama since last summer. Jones had talked with Sarkisian on the phone previously.

He will host Alabama head coach Nick Saban on Wednesday before making his official visit to Tuscaloosa this weekend.

"I really enjoyed talking to him," Jones said. "He seems really laid back. We can relate by talking football, but we didn't really talk that much football.
