Alabama?offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin has agreed to become Florida Atlantics next football coach.Although the school hasnt announced the move, Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said in a Monday news conference that FAU had made a great hire.We think this is a wonderful opportunity for him to be a head coach again, Saban said. I think FAU has selected someone that is going to do a great job for them. Hes done a great job here molding our offensive players to what they can do to have the best chance to be successful, and I think thats always something thats very telling about the quality of a coach.Kiffin had been engaging in back-and-forth talks with the Conference USA school since last Friday, sources told ESPN. At one point, negotiations between the two sides stalled, but a deal was struck early Monday morning, sources said.Kiffin will remain Alabamas offensive coordinator throughout the College Football Playoff, Saban said, maintaining a similar role to former defensive coordinator Kirby Smarts last season, after he took Georgias head-coaching job.Kiffin, 41, returns to the head-coaching fraternity after three seasons as offensive coordinator under Saban. The Crimson Tide are in pursuit of their second straight national championship and have won three straight SEC titles, with Kiffin getting three different first-year starters ready at quarterback, including true freshman Jalen Hurts this season.Kiffins contract with Alabama was set to expire after this season, and he wasnt expected to return, which helps explain why he made a hard push to find a head-coaching job -- even if it meant a step down in prestige and most likely a pay cut.Lane appreciates the opportunity Nick Saban gave him and feels good about everything Alabama accomplished during his three years there, but he was at a point in his career where he was ready to go prove that he could be a head coach again, a source close to the situation told ESPN.com.Kiffins salary at FAU will average in the $1 million range annually, according to sources. He was making $1.4 million per year as Alabamas offensive coordinator.One of the finalists for the Houston head-coaching job, which went to Major Applewhite last week, Kiffin takes over an FAU program that went 3-9 this past season. He replaces Charlie Partridge, who was fired in November after going 9-27 in three seasons at the Boca Raton, Florida, school.Kiffin was also being pursued by new LSU head coach and friend Ed Orgeron to be the Tigers offensive coordinator. But Kiffin?wanted to keep all of his options open, including going back to the NFL.Considered by many to be one of the top offensive minds in the game, Kiffin has generated his share of controversy in his career, which has given some athletic directors and presidents around the country cause for concern about his ability to manage a program. But Saban said last week that he is confident Kiffin is ready to be a head coach again.This will be Kiffins fourth head-coaching stint. He was the Oakland Raiders head coach for the 2007 season and part of the 2008 season before being fired by Al Davis, the late Raiders owner. He went to Tennessee as head coach in 2009, but he bolted for USC after just one season in Knoxville.A former assistant at USC under Pete Carroll, Kiffin was the Trojans head coach from 2010 to 12 and then was fired five games into the 2013 season by then-USC athletic director Pat Haden. At USC, Kiffin inherited a program under severe NCAA sanctions. He was 35-21 at Tennessee and USC and 5-15 with the Raiders. He landed all three head-coaching jobs before the age of 35.Kiffin has some ties to the Florida area. His father, Monte Kiffin, was the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive coordinator for 13 years from 1996 to 2008, and Lane Kiffin was on the Jacksonville Jaguars staff for a season in 2000.

COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Highlighted by Leonard Fournette of LSU and Alabamas Derrick Henry, the eventual Heisman trophy winner, the Southeastern Conference boasted some of the nations top rushing attacks in 2015.Missouris was not one of them.In the wake of back-to-back division championships, the Tigers struggles in 2015 were historic. Tallying 1,385 rushing yards and only five rushing touchdowns, Missouri finished the season ranked 127th out of 128 Bowl Subdivision teams in scoring -- the worst finish in school history.The offense was riddled with setbacks seemingly every week. From nagging injuries on the line to running back Russell Hansbroughs ankle sprain in the season opener to the suspension and eventual dismissal of quarterback Maty Mauk, the Tigers never found a rhythm to their season.A 1,000-yard back in 2014, Hansbroughs injury gave way to Ish Witter as the Tigers primary ball carrier. He rushed 126 times for 518 yards and a touchdown in 2015.Witter said the team wouldnt simply forget about what happened in 2015, but it wont dwell on it, either.Its in the past, said Witter, a junior from Tampa, Florida.

Just seeing the competition unfold. Ultimately, were going to need a few of those guys to be able to pound the ball to be successful and chase a championship.Missouri added three new running backs to its roster during the offseason, including graduate transfer Alex Ross from Oklahoma.I feel like well be able to run the ball effectively, said Ross, who rushed 123 times for 786 yards and five touchdowns in three seasons as a Sooner. Weve got a lot of guys that can run, the offensive line is looking good, but the defense is what really helps us. Its good looks all the time.Heupel used words like fast, strong, explosive and mature to describe Ross, who also returned 53 kicks for 1,363 yards and two touchdowns at Oklahoma.He has the ability to take it the distance when hes got some open grass, Heupel said. Hes played at a high level. Hes played a lot of football, so I think its a welcome addition to our backfield.Freshman Demarea Crockett and junior college transfer Nate Strong add depth to the backfield, which already has the look of a rush by committee attack.Those were answers that we were trying to get fixed as we finished spring practice, Odom said. Weve got to get them ready to play, but those are two guys that could help us early on.
