Could elite defensive mind, Todd Grantham, join Nick Saban’s staff?

Could one of college football’s most elite defensive minds be joining Nick Saban?

Todd Grantham, 55, is considering an offer to join Saban at Alabama — according to Football Scoop.

Grantham has coached defensive ends, defensive linemen, inside linebackers, outside linebackers, and served as a defensive coordinator. He coached defensive linemen and was an assistant head coach under Saban at Michigan State from 1996-98.

Grantham coordinated defenses, coached outside linebackers, and served as an assistant head coach at Georgia, Louisville, Mississippi State, and Florida. The Bulldogs allowed an average of 22.8 points per game, totaled 124 sacks, and created 56 interceptions in four years (2010-13) under Grantham.
