As reported By the Birmingham News:
New Alabama football coach Nick Saban has offered Miami Dolphins quarterbacks coach Jason Garrett a job as the Crimson Tide's offensive coordinator, a source with knowledge of the process said Wednesday.
Garrett, a Princeton graduate, is a 40-year-old former NFL quarterback who has been an NFL assistant for two seasons. He has never been a coordinator.
Also, former Houston Texans coaches Joe Pendry and Steve Marshall have joined the UA staff, a source said.
Garrett, the son of former Princeton and Columbia football coach Jim Garrett, saw action in eight NFL seasons. He played seven seasons for the Cowboys and one for the New York Giants. He has been a full-time assistant for two seasons.
Garrett may be a candidate for the Cleveland Browns' offensive coordinator position, though the Dolphins have yet to grant the Browns permission to interview him. Alabama, as a college team, did not need such permission.
If Garrett accepts the job, he could share coordinator duties with Pendry. A West Virginia native like Saban, Pendry also coached for two of Saban's mentors - George Perles and Frank Cignetti.
