Courtney Morgan just got paid as he signed a new contract to continue to be Alabama football’s general manager, per Matt Zenitz of 247 Sports.
The deal is reportedly worth around $825,000 per year and is a three year contract.
Morgan is the first ever general manager of Alabama football.
Kalen DeBoer recently raved about him during an interview with Chris Long.
“He has the vision beyond just being a guy that can do great with building relationships and loves identifying and really diving into film and finding those diamonds in the rough,” DeBoer said. “He has all those skills, and he just is passionate about it. But I think he’s also got this just big vision on how we can connect. I’m not getting any younger. We’re all getting older. But he’s got an understanding of what even the culture is that a lot of the 16, 17, 18 year olds enjoy being around. Whether it’s setting up the graphics and the videos when they come official visits, unofficial visits and what they like to see. The nuts and bolts of everything that recruiting kind of has always been about is helping build the relationships. I pride myself in fostering an environment our team and for our staff that just is positive. He does an amazing job doing that.”
Zenits called the contract a ‘landmark’ one for off-the-field staff in college football.
