Report: Washington Offensive Coordinator Ryan Grubb No Longer in Consideration at Alabama
As Alabama's search for a new offensive coordinator continues, one name can now be removed from head coach Nick Saban's list of potential candidates.
According to a report from ESPN's Adam Rittenberg, Washington offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb is no longer in consideration for the role at Alabama:
Grubb met with Saban at Alabama on Monday to discuss the potential of becoming the Crimson Tide's next OC, but ultimately decided to remain with the Huskies in the same role.
This past season, Washington averaged 369.8 passing yards, and 146.0 rushing yards per game. The Huskies also led the FBS in first downs (27.2 per game), third down conversions (56.83 percent), and tackles for loss allowed (31). They were second in sacks allowed (7), seventh in scoring (39.7 points per game), and 10th in yards per play (6.88).
Follwing Grubb's first season with the Huskies, the school subsequently rewarded him with a raise up to $2 million a season.
When Kalen DeBoer was named Washington's new head football coach, the first staff member he announced was Grubb as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Grubb was a member of DeBoer's staff at Fresno State the previous two seasons, serving as associate head coach, offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
In 2021, he helped lead Fresno State to a 9-3 overall record. As of the end of the regular season, the Bulldogs ranked No. 1 in the Mountain West Conference in total offense (464.8 yards per game) and second in scoring offense (33.4 points per game) and passing offense (330.1 yards per game).
In 2020, Fresno State also led the conference with 479.3 yards of total offense per game.
