PODCAST: David Ballou rising as an option for Alabama at strength coach

With the first day of spring practice in two weeks, Nick Saban is trying to hire a new face for Alabama at strength and conditioning coach. Fans became very excited with the idea of having Alabama native, Aaron Feld, yet it appears that he may remain with the Oregon Ducks.

Two candidates were interviewed this week – including David Ballou of Indiana.

Once a fullback for the Hoosiers from 1997-99, Ballou spent 13 seasons as a strength and conditioning coach at Avon High School from 2002-14. He helped the program to six state championships in multiple sports and produced 80 Division I athletes.
