UGA Football: Georgia Officially Announces the Hiring of James Coley and Josh Crawford to the Coaching Staff to Replace Dell McGee and Bryan McClendon

ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia football is adding James Coley as wide receivers coach and Josh Crawford as run game coordinator/running backs coach, according to an announcement from head coach Kirby Smart Monday.

Coley is replacing Bryan McClendon, who is now the Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers coach, and Crawford is filling the spot vacated by Dell McGee, who is Georgia State’s new head coach.

“We are excited to have Coley and his family back in Athens,” Smart said.  “He is a tremendous teacher and leader of young men. His previous experience on our staff will make this a seamless transition. As for Josh, I’ve had the pleasure of observing his career unfold over the years and have been consistently impressed. His hard work and the significant impact he’s had coaching football in our state have earned him this opportunity.”

Prior to accepting a similar position with South Carolina in January 2024, Coley was hired in 2020 as the Texas A&M tight ends coach.  He was named the Aggies’ co-offensive coordinator in 2022 and also worked with receivers while in College Station.
