Alabama is adding another defensive analyst to Nick Saban’s coaching staff.
Jake Long, a former walk-on defensive lineman, is returning to his Alma mater.
He helped the Crimson Tide to a Southeastern Conference Championship and a College Football Playoff National Championship in 2015 as a scout-team player. After assisting the Tide to another SEC Championship in 2016, Long helped Jeremy Pruitt in 2017 as a graduate assistant. He spent last season as a grad assistant under Dan Lanning at the University of Oregon.
Long shared via Twitter that he’s back with the Tide.
