DJ Durkin Working Behind the Scenes for Saban at 'Bama
Former Maryland head coach D.J. Durkin, fired in October after a lengthy investigation into the death of one of his players, has resurfaced at Alabama.
In his first foray back into football since his October firing, Durkin has been helping Alabama this past week in a consultant-like capacity, sources told AL.com. It’s unclear at this point if Durkin could have a long-term role on Nick Saban’s Alabama staff though, according to sources.
Interesting with the Dax Hill situation

This model is their secret to recruiting. Who else can hire an analyst for 18-30k/yr that was a former head coach that can help you with recruiting. Bama has enough analysts on staff to cover each recruit. All of those coaches have buy outs and already bringing in millions so it's a steal for Bama to get them for next to nothing.
