On Wednesday, Tommy Rees Zoomed with Nick Saban.
Thursday, Rees flew to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, to meet in person with Saban and Alabama leaders.
Today, Rees is Alabama's next offensive coordinators.
Multiple sources tell FootballScoop that Rees agreed to terms Friday afternoon with the Crimson Tide and Saban, who had been seeking a replacement for Bill O'Brien.
Rees had guided the Notre Dame offense for the past three seasons and helped the Irish to the 2020 College Football Playoff after an undefeated regular season.
After Brian Kelly left Notre Dame in 2021 to take over at LSU, Kelly tried to hire Rees to Baton Rouge, La.
Instead Rees opted to stay on Marcus Freeman's staff and received a revamped deal as the Irish offensive coordinator.
Multiple sources told FootballScoop that Rees's new deal at Notre Dame a year ago was a three-year pact that paid Rees an average of nearly $2 million per year and that when Alabama began its pursuit of Rees, the Tide made clear it would be willing to match -- or exceed Rees's Irish earnings.
On Thursday, FootballScoop first reported that Rees had been formally offered the job and was expected to accept the position atop the Crimson Tide offense.
Rees has NFL experience with the Chargers in addition to his long-running time at Notre Dame, which saw him rise from quarterbacks coach for three seasons to offensive coordinator as heir apparent to Chip Long the past three seasons.
In three seasons at the helm of the Irish offense, Rees helped Notre Dame to 30 wins despite starting having different starting quarterbacks each seasons.
In addition to being offered the top offensive past last year at LSU, Rees also was pursued for the offensive coordinator position at Miami by Mario Cristobal.
