The search to replace Karl Dunbar continues in Tuscaloosa.
Last week, it was announced Dunbar was leaving the Crimson Tide to return to the NFL and take over the open defensive line job with the Steelers. Now Nick Saban is reportedly interviewing at least one candidate from the Group of 5 level.
According to Charlie Potter of Alabama Online, the Tide have interviewed Tulane defensive line coach Kevin Peoples. Peoples has been at Tulane for two seasons. Before landing at Tulane, Peoples coached at Georgia Southern, UAB, Arkansas, Arkansas State, Central Missouri and Northern Arizona.
Despite working at some lower level programs, Peoples has helped several defensive linemen develop into draft picks in the NFL.
