South Alabama football

Before ever coaching a game at the school, two recently hired assistant coaches for the South Alabama football program have accepted other jobs. Running backs coach Jayden Everett is headed to Minnesota of the Big Ten at the same position, while defensive line coach Cedric Douglas is taking the same position at Sun Belt Conference rival Georgia Southern.

Everett arrived at South Alabama from Michigan where he was an offensive assistant and analyst. He replaced Effrum Reed, who left the Jags’ program to join former South Alabama offensive coordinator Rob Ezell at Wake Forest. Ezell is the Demon Deacons’ new offensive coordinator.
