The Alabama Crimson Tide have a new offensive coordinator in former New England Patriots tight ends coach Brian Daboll. Unlike when Steve Sarkisian replaced Lane Kiffin as offensive coordinator for the Crimson Tide, Daboll's system is entirely different than what Alabama fans and players have become accustomed to in recent years.

People have wondered if the player that faces the most-difficult transition from Kiffin and Sarkisian to Daboll is their star quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Here's what Hurts said about the change via SaturdayDownSouth:
"We gelled really quick," Hurts said. "I think we've built a really good relationship in a short time. Very involved. We always FaceTime Gronkowski, Brady, whoever it is, (Daboll's) cool, he's laid back.
"He'll call Tom Brady and ask him what his Top 5 plays are, it's cool because we are running the same plays he ran."
It's definitely nice to see if you're a Crimson Tide fan that Hurts is getting advice from two of the best players in the NFL who know and understand Daboll's system in Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski.
Still, one would think this is a going to be a long, arduous process for Hurts as develops more as a passer for the Crimson Tide as Nick Saban and Daboll are expecting.
