Craig Kuligowski brings big-time sack numbers to Alabama d-line

Craig Kuligowski’s impending arrival at Alabama does more than bring an experienced line coach to Tuscaloosa. Now, Nick Saban’s already-formidable defense adds a coach renowned for developing sack machines.

Kuligowski, named in numerous reports as the Crimson Tide’s next defensive line coach after his departure from Miami on Monday, has a track record to match anyone, anywhere, in the quarterback-squashing department.

The numbers, both from Kuligowski’s past two years with the Hurricanes and his long previous tenure under Gary Pinkel at Missouri, back up his reputation. The past five years illustrate the trend well.
