Kalen DeBoer, the new head coach of Alabama, has appointed Maurice Linguist and Colin Hitschler as co-defensive coordinators and defensive back coaches. DeBoer is allowing assistant coaches to speak to the media and has opened up select practices to reporters, a departure from the previous regime under Nick Saban. The staff is working with Saban to adapt his defensive strategies to the new setup.
