Why Alabama's QB coach could be a catalyst for tight ends

Immediately upon arriving at Alabama earlier this year, Dan Enos made his presence felt.

"I always hear him yelling and being loud," center Ross Pierschbacher said this spring.

The quarterbacks coach's voice traveled well beyond the room he commanded -- echoing down the hall and carrying all the way to the domain occupied by the tight ends. It's here where Enos has unusual influence for someone whose main job is to mentor both Tua Tagovailoa and Jalen Hurts. There is a reason for that.

At Arkansas, where he served as offensive coordinator the previous three seasons, Enos helped orchestrate a scheme that relied heavily on tight ends.
