What's with all this associate head coach and assistant coach stuff? Is CNS grooming his replacement or do they just help him with extra stuff outside of their positions?

We’ve had an associate head coach for several years filled by different coaches so it’s nothing new. So, I would say the latter is true not the former.

I'm really happy about Dan Enos coming to Bama. I was actually hoping he would replace Kiffin last year. He's really a good QB coach and will help Jalen and Tua.
I might have something to do with "title = prestige plus more money" and trying to keep staff from being raided each year.
IMO, Dan Enos is a quality hire and along with all the recent hires could be Saban's best staff since arriving here. Hopefully hiring Enos will keep Freeze out of Tuscaloosa.
Well, I was critical of the hire I didn't like, so I guess I should praise the ones I do like - Enos and Gattis are absolutely terrific gets. Passing games don't operate in a QB and WR coach vacuum, but I've gotta figure these guys will kick us up a notch.
Yeah, looking at the comment section on twitter, looks like Michigan fans heads are exploding over this.
For those who think that CNS is not aware of his own team's (and staff's) deficiencies -- just look at these hires. QB Coach, WR Coach and Special Teams Coach. All outstanding coaches and recruiters...several are young and hungry, more able to bridge the age gap (if there is one.) I also like it that he was able to hire at least 3 who had just moved...meaning that UA assistant jobs are plums for coaches.
The signs are also pointing to a more explosive offense...which is exciting. Now Tua and Jalen will have a first class QB coach focused on them and their development. If Enos can do with them what he did at Arkansas, then the result should be spectacular.

Enos left Arky and had a no SEC compete clause. Guess his short Michigan stint nullified this. REC at its finest.
I can't tell you how ecstatic I am over this coaching staff. And we just slapped Harbaugh in the back of the head in the process? Awesome.
With Enos on staff, this has to become Saban's best offensive coaching staff.
This is exciting. I'm trying to temper my expectations for this offense over the next 2 years but its getting harder.
These are unbelievable additions.
If we (and college football) didn't know better, you'd think that CNS had just had the worse year of his career.
Well he didn't, but I think these changes (upgrades in alot of ways) signal he is not anywhere near being done!!!

It'll be interesting to see how the personalities mesh together. Also, I wonder one reason CNS went with Enos is as a possible replacement OC should/when Locksley leave.
This may go without saying, but you are only as good as the people you surround yourselves with. The best of leaders understand this. Coach Bryant even made the statement when he retired about standing on the shoulders of giants (Isaac Newton). Great leaders know great people and who can help them get to where they want to go. Great people want to be around great leaders so they can soak it all in. It's a cycle.
I love the cycle at this time at Alabama.
Roll Tide!!

Wow! I always already excited about how the staff changes were shaping up before we got Enos. Now I am even more stoked!
