Coleman Hutzler will coach outside linebackers for Alabama with Sal Sunseri in off-field role

Coleman Hutzler will operate in two roles for Alabama’s coaching staff.

The Crimson Tide hired him to serve as special teams coordinator, but he will also be the outside linebackers coach.

Hutzler takes over for Sal Sunseri, who has been moved to an off-field role.

Nick Saban announced on Wednesday that Sunseri will be the special assistant to the head coach. Sunseri’s new role will include helping Coach Saban operate the NCAA transfer portal. Sunseri, 62, served two stints with outside linebackers at Alabama.

He started in Tuscaloosa from 2009 to 2011, and he returned from 2019 to 2021.
