Even after losing a good coach and great recruiter in Charles Huff, Nick Saban looks at the fans and players of Alabama football and asks ‘will you just trust me?’
According to respectable sources, yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine learned on Saturday that Saban had targeted Huff’s replacement and reports from other media outlets have confirmed the news. Robert Gillespie of North Carolina is expected to be hired as the Crimson Tide’s new running backs coach. At 41 years old, he has ties to the Southeastern Conference and is an exceptional recruiter too. In bringing in Gillespie, Alabama would have not drop off in production for its rushing attack.
