According to a release this afternoon from the athletic department Kirby Smart has put a few more pieces together for his inaugural staff.
Veteran college assistant James Coley comes onboard as wide receivers coach. Coley was a Miami high school coach before moving to the college ranks with LSU, where he served as a graduate assistant under Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher. Like Kirby Smart he followed Saban to the NFL's Miami Dolphins, but returned to college to serve as offensive coordinator at Florida International under current Alabama assistant Mario Cristobal. Coley then reunited with Fisher at Florida State in 2008, where he served as recruiting coordinator for the Seminoles until 2012.
