Nick Saban is set to add another former head coach to his Alabama staff.
Ex-Louisville head coach Ron Cooper is expected to join the Crimson Tide in a support staff capacity, a source told AL.com.
Cooper was Louisville’s head coach from 1995-97. The 59-year old Huntsville native has also been a head coach at Eastern Michigan (1993-94) and Alabama A&M (1998-2001), a defensive coordinator at schools like Mississippi State (2003) and FIU (2016) and a defensive backs coach for teams such as South Carolina, LSU, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Texas A&M and Arkansas.
