Former Alabama coach Nick Saban fully supports the Crimson Tide’s decision to hire Washington’s Kalen DeBoer as his replacement on the sidelines.
“I want nothing more than to see Alabama football continue to be successful, and Coach DeBoer is an outstanding choice to lead this program,” Saban said in a statement posted to social media. “He has a proven track record of success and is one of the brightest football minds.”
DeBoer, 49, now sits at the helm of one of college football’s greatest dynasties after spending two seasons with Washington.
