Until his hire at Alabama on February 15, 2016, Key was the offensive coordinator, assistant head coach, offensive line coach, and recruiting coordinator for 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. Key served as UCF's recruiting coordinator beginning in 2007 along with being UCF's Offensive Line Coach. After the 2012 season, Key was promoted to assistant head coach and then to offensive coordinator following the 2013 season.
Key is widely regarded as one of the top assistant coaches in the country. While as an assistant at UCF, Key was selected to be the heir apparent to George O'Leary following his retirement. 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.
In February 2016, Key was hired as the Offensive Line at Alabama, replacing Mario Cristobal, who remained on staff as Tight Ends coach.
