Georgia Football will soon have a new head coach. Dell McGee might be the one this time. According to Graham Coffey of The Players Lounge, Georgia’s running back coach will take over as Georgia State’s new head cMcGee has worked under Kirby Smart at Georgia since the beginning, in 2016, when Smart took over. According to reports released on Wednesday, Buster Faulkner, the current offensive coordinator at Georgia Tech, and McGee, a former offensive analyst for Georgia, were the front-runners.
Neither Georgia State nor the University of Georgia have provided any confirmation, nor has McGee made any official statements. The Dawgs will have new wide receiver and running back coaches in the same offseason, if the claim is true. Additionally, as McClendon and McGee coach their respective positions and serve as coordinators of the running and passing games, Smart will take over those positions coach.
Now for the fan’s viewpoint. Nothing has been spoken by those concerned in this situation for more than twenty-four hours. Then Rusty Mansell posted this tweet.
So, if you cannot tell by now, I do not want McGee to go to Georgia State. Selfishly, I want him to stay for at least one more year! Since Kirby Smart took over, McGee has been a mainstay for the Dawgs.
McGee has served a huge role in developing some of the best backs that ever came through Georgia (minus one running back. He was already better than Chubb, Sony, Swift, and Holyfield. McGee and Smart did not play him because they hated him. Look at his Twitter; he will tell you himself! ) and is a heckuva recruiter.
Furthermore, I fail to see why someone would leave Georgia to take a head coaching position at a G5 university. It likely pays similarly and has greater responsibilities. George Costanza once said, “Never take a job with more responsibility for a small pay rise.” I always abide by this advice. Merely receiving the acknowledgement you “deserve” does not guarantee pleasure. In light of this, I fail to see McGee’s decision to leave his comfortable position and enrol at Georgia State.
In the event that McGee does leave, Georgia will need to hire a replacement coach within a month or so, as spring practice is scheduled to begin in late March. Kirby Smart is going to be quite busy. However, I believe that we all anticipate
