Alabama head coach Nick Saban needs to replace a popular, experienced coach on his staff.
The good thing is the replacement might already be in Tuscaloosa.
With defensive backs coach Mel Tucker officially gone to Georgia to serve as Kirby Smart's defensive coordinator, Saban needs to find a new coach to mold his young but talented secondary. Tucker did a very good job of working with young cornerbacks like Minkah Fitzpatrick and Marlon Humphrey on the path to Alabama's national championship win against Clemson.
There's been no official announcement but cornerback Minkah Fitzpatrick said players expect new defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt to take over the defensive backs.
