Cristobal is a commodity for more than just his coaching abilities; he's been Alabama's lead recruiter in Florida in recent years, having experience there as an assistant for Miami and as a head coach for Florida International. Cristobal has been a candidate for several positions in recent years, but Nick Saban has done his best to keep him in Tuscaloosa.
Cristobal is currently expected to stay with Alabama through the national title game against Clemson before making a decision.
