Kalen DeBoer isn't ditching the spring game like some around the country are, but Alabama won't have the usual springtime presentation.

Ryan Grubb will serve as Alabama football's offensive coordinator after all. Grubb, who spent 12 previous seasons with DeBoer in a variety of roles, was with DeBoer at Washington, Fresno State, Eastern Illinois and Division II Sioux Falls.

Kalen DeBoer confirmed that Alabama will make some changes to this year's Spring Game. Last month, Alabama announced that Bryant-Denny Stadium will host the annual A-Day Spring Game on Saturday, April 12.
