From Clemson to Boise, Broncos’ newest assistant brings youthful energy to defense

As his third practice as a Boise State assistant coach began Friday, Zac Alley was excited — like, really, really excited.

Before drills begin, Alley, the Broncos’ new inside linebackers coach, likes to get his group pumped up, fittingly ending with a group shout of the word “energy.”

But Alley kind of forgot, starting to run off yelling about hitting the sled hard and such before the traditional way to break it down.

“(Sometimes) he gets too excited, but that’s great for us — he’s one of the youngest coaches in college football, and that can be an advantage for us to feed off of it, leading to having a great practice,” sophomore linebacker Zeke Noa said.
