Long is an Alabama native, so some thought that Saban might tap him to be his new OC, now that Mike Locksley has become Maryland's HC. Luckily, Saban promoted his QB coach, Dan Enos, to be the new OC.
Let's hope that Long is grooming Ian Book with new concepts and plays during the long layoff: misdirection, go routes, gadget plays, creative 2 point plays that could decide a game, etc.
