The Alabama Crimson Tide have been looking for a new special teams coordinator/TE coach since Jeff Banks left to join Steve Sarkisian’s Texas staff.
On Tuesday, the Tide officially announced that they had hired Banks’ replacement — Jay Graham.
Graham was the RB coach at Tennessee last year, helping Vols RB Eric Gray become a talented runner and one of the top backs in the SEC. Alabama has officially announced the hiring.
“We are pleased to be able to add Jay Graham to our staff,” head coach Nick Saban said in a release. “Jay is well respected across the country for his knowledge of the game and his ability to recruit. He has experience at numerous schools across the SEC footprint with a proven track record for his ability to teach the game and develop young men both on the field and in life.”
Graham will have a great kicker to work with in Will Reichard, who went 14-for-14 on field goals in 2020 and 84-for-84 on extra points.
