The No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide is set to play in the national championship game next Monday night in Indianapolis, Indiana. With the end of the season upon us and the coaching causal in full swing it appears the Tide will be losing an assistant coach.
The Alabama Crimson Tide kicked off their first day of spring practice this afternoon and there are loads of new faces on offense and defense, and on the coaching staff as well.
The Alabama football program made the hiring of Jay Valai official today. Valai will become the new cornerbacks coach, replacing the departing Karl Scott. Valai joins the coaching staff after previous stints with Texas, Rutgers, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Georgia Bulldogs.
