One of Alabama’s analysts has landed a defensive coordinator job.

UConn is hiring Lou Spanos as its defensive coordinator, sources told AL.com.

Spanos, a defensive analyst for the Crimson Tide this past season, was UCLA’s defensive coordinator from 2012 to 2013 and then the Tennessee Titans' linebackers coach from 2014 to 2017.

Before UCLA, Spanos worked for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 1995 to 2009 and was then the Washington Redskins' linebackers coach in 2010 and 2011.
