Entering his third season at Georgia, assistant coach Dell McGee has a new role with the team.
McGee, who serves as the team’s running backs coach, has added the title of assistant head coach. The additional role was made apparent with the release of Georgia’s 2018 media guide as well as the update to McGee’s page on Georgia’s website.
Per The Athens Banner-Herald’s Marc Weiszer, McGee’s new status on the Georgia coaching staff comes after he received a $200,000 raise earlier this year, pushing his yearly salary to $550,000. McGee’s salary makes him the fifth-highest paid assistant coach on the staff behind defensive coordinator Mel Tucker, offensive coordinator Jim Chaney, co-offensive coordinator James Coley and offensive line coach Sam Pittman.
