Alabama offensive analyst Tino Sunseri continues to climb the coaching ranks. After a successful two-year stint in Tuscaloosa, the son of Sal Sunseri is leaving to become the quarterbacks coach at James Madison University.
That news comes straight from the younger Sunseri, who took to Twitter on Tuesday afternoon to share the news. His statement reads:
“I would like to thank Coach Saban for allowing me to be apart of the Alabama Family for the past two years,” Sunseri said. “Truly has been an unbelievable ride. I will forever be thankful.
“Proud to announce I have accepted the Quarterback Coaching Position at James Madison University #GoDukes”

Losing Sunseri isn’t ideal, but it also isn’t surprising. At only 32 years old, he’s a young, up-and-coming coach who could eventually find his way back to Tuscaloosa — after he gets some valuable experience as a position coach elsewhere.
Prior to his arrival at Alabama, Sunseri spent two seasons as a quality control assistant at Florida State (2016-17) and one at Tennessee (2018). He played his college football at Pitt.
Whether he winds up back in Tuscaloosa or not, Roll Tide Wire wants to wish Sunseri nothing but the best moving forward.
