Former Louisville, Texas and South Florida head football coach Charlie Strong is reportedly joining Nick Saban's coaching staff at Alabama.

According to ESPN's Chris Low, Strong will serve as a defensive analyst under Saban.

Strong was fired from his post at South Florida following a 4-8 finish last season, but he will look to follow in the footsteps of many other former head coaches by rebuilding his resume and credibility as part of a winning program at Alabama.
