Why Alabama DC Kane Wommack is coaching with a little ‘extra umph’ ahead of Iron Bowl

Every Monday, Alabama’s coaches speak to the media before the upcoming game, and sometimes, defensive coordinator Kane Wommack kicks off the press conference and sets the tone for the week ahead.

Yesterday, he took the stage, and there was a subtle but noticeable difference in the way he carried himself during the press conference that may fly under most people’s radar. His focus was sharp, and the phrase that the younger generation would use in this situation is Wommack was locked in.

Wommack is locked in ahead of this year’s Iron Bowl, not only because of the playoff implications or the rumours swirling about him being a candidate for the Arkansas head coaching job; he has strong connections with people on the Auburn coaching staff.
