Alabama has hired former Texas A&M special teams coordinator, recruiting coordinator and tight ends coach Jeff Banks, according to college football insider Bruce Feldman.

In addition to being a good on-field coach, Banks is also known as a good recruiter, and Nick Saban added a nice piece to his staff in Banks. Currently, associate head coach and running backs coach Burton Burns is listed as the special teams coach on the team’s website, but it appears that Banks will take over the special teams duties.

Being a punter at Washington State, Banks has coached special teams his entire career.

When Texas A&M fired Kevin Sumlin, Banks was named interim head coach for the bowl game.

Alabama lost two on-field coaches recently: defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt left for the Tennessee head coaching job and defensive backs coach Derrick Ansley left to become the Raiders’ secondary coach. Saban has now added Banks and former UTSA defensive coordinator Pete Golding to his staff.

Interestingly, the coaching turnover might not be over either. NFL insider Ian Rapoport says that offensive coordinator Brian Daboll could return to the NFL.
