The Way It Is: Inside Alabama’s move to hire Dan Werner as offensive analyst

Alabama head football coach Nick Saban and the program made two strong offseason hires in Brian Daboll (offensive coordinator) and Dan Werner (offensive analyst) that will help its offense.

In his two stints at the University of Mississippi, Werner turned Ole Miss into an offensive powerhouse as its offensive coordinator. Now, he intends on helping sophomore quarterback Jalen Hurts become a more prolific passer from an analyst standpoint in the upcoming fall.

Yours truly of Touchdown Alabama Magazine was live Thursday on The Way It Is, breaking down the hire of Werner and why it strongly benefits Saban and the Crimson Tide moving forward.
