South Alabama Seeks New Head Coach as Alabama Welcomes Kalen DeBoer

Kane Wommack's Departure Triggers Search for Replacement, DeBoer Faces High Expectations at Alabama

Kane Wommack, former head coach of the South Alabama football team, has left for the Alabama defensive coordinator job, creating a vacancy in the South Alabama team.
Under Wommack's leadership, South Alabama had their two best seasons since moving up to FBS in 2012, with a 10-3 record in 2022 and a 7-6 record in 2023.
Potential candidates for the South Alabama head coach position include offensive coordinator Major Applewhite, former UAB head coach Bill Clark, LSU wide receivers coach Cortez Hankton, Baltimore Ravens quarterbacks coach Tee Martin, and Georgia running backs coach Dell McGee.
Alabama has hired Kalen DeBoer as their new head coach, replacing the legendary Nick Saban who recently retired.
DeBoer, who led Washington to the College Football Playoff title game, will be facing high expectations as he steps into Saban's shoes, who led Alabama to a 201-29 record and a record six national titles during his 17 years at Alabama.
