I don't have a link and not willing to give a name prior to announcement, but your new director of player development is a great choice.

He has worked with Butch Davis and Nick Saban for years. Plenty of LA ties unfortunately. Lol

Good as they come in working on speed and conditioning. Has worked with the defensive backs at all of Saban's AL summer camps.

Cool inside sources

If it's Letson, it was announced almost two weeks ago. And, yes, he's a great hire for the position.

This would be a different position than Letson, which means ...


UGA IS HIRING SUPPORT STAFF. SEC FUUUUUCKED

Sorry. These positive investments in the program are so rare that it's exciting when this happens

They're not rare anymore, given how this seems to be a weekly occurrence since Pruitt arrived (hiring people, I mean).

But you know what is exciting? all these new hires means that we need new office space. New office space means expansion. Expansion means adding on to Butts-Mehre.... WE'RE GETTING AN IPF!!! ALL REJOICE!!!

Letson just basically replaced Daryl Jones, so this would be the first new support staff position I think.

I would guess George Helow will also get hired for something

No, this is player development, not personnel.

Different position.

Is he not already on as a GA? I don't know, I'm just guessing. Met him last year when I was visiting my buddy at FSU.

Yeah he's a GA right now, but he's going to move up or move on at some point. He's already spent a year as a GA at both Alabama and FSU

No.

He has previous coaching experience w defensive backs, but was also a recruiting coordinator.

True, I just figured if it was him, then it would have been announced already or I would have heard something. Didn't he play at OM?

Interesting given that John Eason is and has been our Director of Player Development for some time.
