Alabama football’s freshman quarterback, Keelon Russell is happy to have Ryan Grubb back in Tuscaloosa as the Crimson Tide’s offensive coordinator.
Grubb is officially back in Tuscaloosa after a very short stint with the Tide upon Kalen DeBoer’s hiring at Alabama and a year as the Seattle Seahawks’ head coach. He returns to work under DeBoer which is what he did for two years at Washington.
Russell feels this move will benefit him and the Tide’s offense.
“What he did with Michael Penix, it’s legendary,” Russell said, per ON3’s Nick Schultz. “I’m excited…the offense finna turn up this year. We’re finna be great.”
The Crimson Tide have a quarterback competition in front of them, and Russell looks to have an opportunity to make some noise in year one.
The five-star is an early enrollee with the Tide at the moment and is participating in Alabama’s off-season program.
