Early Saturday morning, Alabama announced that it would be looking for a new offensive coordinator after Ryan Grubb agreed to join the Seattle Seahawks in the same role.
However, Grubb is not the only member of Kalen DeBoer’s Crimson Tide staff returning to the west.
According to ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg, Alabama’s new offensive line coach Scott Huff will also join the staff in Seattle.
Huff’s departure would leave a second significant vacuum in a staff that has been at Alabama for less than a month.
Last season, Huff helped Washington develop a Joe Moore Award-winning offensive line that protected outstanding quarterback Michael Penix Jr. Along with Grubb’s scheme, the Huskies had one of the best offensive units in the country, propelling them to the national title game.
The Crimson Tide struggled with consistency on the offensive line and throughout the team last season, ranking 40th in total offence while allowing 30 sacks, according to Pro Football Focus.
Both Huff and Grubb were supposed to get things back on track this season, but DeBoer will most certainly be looking for new coaching staff members.
