This is an opinion column.

Everyone who didn’t have to Google the name Nick Sheridan in the last month/week/24 hours, raise your hand.

Liars. Put your hands down and listen up.

When Alabama hired Kalen DeBoer to follow Nick Saban, the odds were good that DeBoer would bring an offensive coordinator with him from Washington. The odds were astronomical that, in the end, it would not be his offensive coordinator or offensive line coach at UW but instead would be the man who coached the tight ends.

That is, if the reports are true, and the Sheridan promotion happens and sticks. The way DeBoer’s hires have come and gone, stay tuned.

So what do we know about the 35-year-old Sheridan, who apparently will be charged with helping Jalen Milroe and the Alabama offense get to another level in 2024? He has OC experience. He followed DeBoer in that role at Indiana when DeBoer left to become the head coach at Fresno State.
