Florida has hired Keary Colbert as its wide receivers coach, head coach Billy Napier announced on Wednesday.
Colbert spent the last six years working for his alma mater, USC. He was an analyst in 2016-17, the tight ends coach in 2018 and the wide receivers coach from 2019-21.
Five offensive players were selected in the NFL Draft during Colbert’s tenure, including quarterback Sam Darnold, receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, running back Ronald Jones and receiver Michael Pittman.
In 2019, Pittman was named a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award after ranking in the top-20 nationally in receptions, yards and touchdowns.
