The Crimson Tide have found their man to replace former secondary coach Jay Valai after Valai departed to take on a new role as co-defensive coordinator for the Oklahoma Sooners.
Travaris Robinson, the former South Carolina Gamecocks defensive coordinator, and most recently the defensive backs coach for the Miami Hurricanes, has officially been announced as the new secondary coach for Alabama after just a three-week-long search.
Robinson has spent considerable time in the Southeastern Conference, particularly with the South Carolina Gamecocks as their defensive coordinator from 2016 until 2020.
Last season he coached defensive backs under Manny Diaz, who was recently replaced with Mario Cristobal.
