Florida announces coaching assignments, including Tim Skipper as linebackers coach

After more than a month of speculation, the Florida Gators made one of the oft-rumored shakeups to their football coaching staff official on Friday by announcing updated positional assignments for the 2017 coaching staff.

Those assignments, from Florida’s release:

Tim Skipper – Assistant Coach, Linebackers

Corey Bell – Assistant Coach, Defensive Backs

Ja'Juan Seider – Assistant Coach, Running Backs

Brad Davis – Assistant Coach, Offensive Line

The top-line change here is Skipper moving from running backs coach, the position he had held over his first two years in Gainesville, to linebackers coach, a position he had served at under Jim McElwain at Colorado State.
