PHILADELPHIA — For one season, Michael Locksley’s nightly walks out of the Alabama football facility were often accompanied by the blaring music coming from a nearby office.
The Maryland coach was co-offensive coordinator for the Crimson Tide in 2017, and would typically be one of the last people in the building each night. When he was outlasted, it was usually by his fellow co-offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and quarterback Jalen Hurts, blasting a variety of music through “Dabes’” sound system.
“Dabes is really versatile in his music,” Locksley told The Philadelphia Inquirer. “He was a big Citizen Cope fan in 2017. He loves his rap, he’s very eccentric with his music.”
