Got a friend who is a Bama Grad/superfan. He says they're not demoting him, but are looking to shuffle the staff.
Their WR coach apparently struck out on a bunch of players which is a no-no for Saban. They're getting rid of him, making the current TE/ST coach the new WR/ST coach and making Mario TE's and Tackles with Key only coaching G's and C's
Napier is getting fired???
But instead of getting another gig on a bunch of staffs that have had turnover, he's just going to wait it out?
If that really happens, he deserves to be fired. But I doubt he's the one being moved from on-field.
I think Williams moves from TE/ST to off-field, before transitioning to retirement. Key will probably get ST/OL.
Mario is coaching TE. May also get the AHC title Mel Tucker had.
So, yeah ... It's not a demotion in pay or value to their staff. But it is a demotion in coaching responsibility, IMO.
