To go with his raise, James Coley also received a promotional title.
Coley has been given the label of Georgia's co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. This would explain the lofty raise to a salary of $850,000 per season, which was an increase of $400,000. With Coley moving to lead the quarterbacks, offensive coordinator Jim Chaney will be handling the tight ends.
Last season, Coley coached receivers and Chaney led the quarterbacks. Coley was a candidate to be Texas A&M's offensive coordinator but elected to stay in Athens. With Shane Beamer leaving for Oklahoma, the Bulldogs needed a new tight ends coach, which was also part of the reason this move was made.
