Alabama told Eli Gold he wasn't living up to its standard, terminating broadcaster's tenure after 36 years

Also hired a new tight ends coach.  Just hope they are good coaches.

"DeBoer is going to have a big say in which arms they target, but Sheridan should be a guy that top signal callers can relate with, given his background," Ivins said.

National recruiting editor Brandon Huffman said promoting Sheridan means Alabama and DeBoer get much-needed continuity on the new staff and get a guy with talent for recruiting tight ends on top of quarterbacks.

"Sheridan's move to offensive coordinator means a couple of things," Huffman said. "Finally, there's some continuity on Kalen DeBoer's staff at Tuscaloosa and a coordinator who has recruiting chops. He was key in tight end recruiting at Washington, namely Decker DeGraaf in the 2024 class. He also did a great job recruiting out of the portal at tight end."

Sheridan has recruiting ties to the South, West and Midwest from his multiple coaching stops and had a bigger hand in getting Penix to Indiana than DeBoer, according to Huffman.
