Tommy Rees update in regards to Alabama opening
Thursday we saw news that former Notre Dame quarterback and offensive coordinator Tommy Rees had interviewed for the head coach opening at Alabama.
In the early hours of Friday morning he remains a possibility to be the next head coach but certainly doesn’t appear to be a favorite.
The following is from a 247Sports report by Brandon Marcello:
The names to watch heading into Friday at Alabama are Washington’s Kalen DeBoer, Florida State’s Mike Norvell and Tide offensive coordinator Tommy Rees,sources told 247Sports’ Brandon Marcello earlier Thursday.
Rees is viewed as a long-shot.
Rees is only 31 and I’d still be shocked if he ends up getting the job. My money remains on Lane Kiffin until we hear otherwise, but if Alabama wanted to do the Duke basketball type thing and have Saban still oversee things in a big way but have a younger coach, then Rees becomes what Jon Scheyer does for the Blue Devils.
Just thinking out loud. Stay tuned as there could be major movement in regards to the next Alabama head coach today.
