Brent Key (born August 1, 1978) is an American college football coach and former player, currently the offensive line coach at the University of Alabama. Until his hire at Alabama on February 15, 2016, Key was the offensive coordinator, assistant head coach, offensive line coach, and recruiting coordinator of the UCF Knights. Key played under former UCF head coach George O'Leary at Georgia Tech, where he later served as a graduate assistant before joining O'Leary at UCF. Since 2007, Key has served as the program's recruiting coordinator, and in 2013 was promoted to assistant head coach and then to offensive coordinator.
Key is widely regarded as one of the top assistant coaches in the country, and was to be the heir apparent to O'Leary. Following the 2013 season in which UCF won the Fiesta Bowl, Key reportedly declined the head coaching job at UAB to remain with the Knights.
Key's hire at Alabama will have him coaching the OL while former OL coach Mario Cristobal will coach tight ends.
