Nick Saban has found his replacement for strength coach Scott Cochran and that is Indiana strength and conditioning coach David Ballou...
quote:

The five-time national champion for the Crimson Tide wanted a more cutting-edge, scientific approach to things, and Ballou fit the requirement for him.

He has an incredible resume, which starts from his playing days with the Hoosiers as a fullback from 1997 to 1999.

Afterwards, Ballou spent 13 years at Avon High School (2002-14) as its head strength and conditioning coach. During this time, he guided the school to six state titles in multiple sports and produced 80 Division I scholarship athletes.

Ballou took IMG Academy to another level in 2015 and 2016, as it went 21-0 under him and had five players in 2016 that posted a laser-time of under 4.50 seconds in the 40-yard dash.

Actually seems like a pretty decent move by N$ honestly... those IMG connections could pay dividends in the recruiting world.

Steroids are known to give you boobies when you stop taking them.

Why would Saban hire someone who needs a bra?

Hell of a resume. Play at Indiana, coach high school for 13 years, then coach at an All Star High School. Creme of the crop right there.

Looks the the perfect guy to clean up any PED issues. By that I mean further institutionalize PED use but make sure there are no “issues”.
