Alabama coach Nick Saban announced Monday that Lane Kiffin will depart from his post as offensive coordinator with the Crimson Tide prior to the College Football Playoff National Championship Game and will focus on his duties as the next head coach of FAU.  New offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian, who was recently announced as Kiffin’s replacement after spending this season as an offensive analyst for Saban, will begin immediately with preparation for the big game against Clemson.
