Alabama is parting ways with co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Colin Hitschler, ESPN and other media outlets reported Friday.
Hitschler, 38, had one year left on his initial two-year contract. He worked primarily with the safeties and shared DC duties with linebackers coach Kane Wommack.
The Crimson Tide finished 9-4 in head coach Kalen DeBoer’s first season, ending with a 19-13 loss to Michigan on Tuesday in the ReliaQuest Bowl in Tampa, Fla.
The Alabama defense allowed 17.4 points per game. The Crimson Tide are ranked ninth nationally.
Hitschler was previously the co-defensive coordinator at Wisconsin (2023) and Cincinnati (2022).
