Coach Saban only wants the brightest and best in assistant coaches and he has a knack for finding theses coaches. What he really wants is good recruiters and coaches who can teach proper football technique. When former assistant coach Bo Davis left Alabama for Texas, Saban reeled-in Clemson’s DL coach Chris Rumph.

Last season, there was a marked improvement in the defensive line’s ability to sustain and get a push up-front. (Check out the national championship game for LSU drives going past the 50 yard line. I rest my case! ?)

One of the key reasons is how Chris Rumph trains defensive line players on technique. You can see how Rumph takes the raw talent and teaches them how to attack the line of scrimmage the right way in the video below. You will see the players get a little vertical and he jumps in and shows them how to hit the sled with more horizontal power. Also, notice the way the players pump their feet.

In the video, you can see the DL Coach Chris Rumph working with Jesse Williams (54), Damion Square (92), Quinton Dial (90), Brandon Ivory (62), and others in Wednesdays’s workouts.
