Former Alabama offensive lineman takes over as OL coach at Colorado

College football has become an army of Nick Saban disciples.

Whether one looks at the Southeastern Conference, Big 12, Big Ten, or Pac-12, the landscape of the sport is full of coaches who have learned from Saban. William Vlachos is the latest student that is prepared to cash in on what he learned. According to Bruce Feldman, a reporter for Fox Sports and writer for The Athletic, Vlachos will take over as offensive line coach at Colorado.

He was born in Greece, but Vlachos attended Mountain Brook High School in Birmingham, Ala. He was a three-star prospect in the 2007 recruiting class.
