GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- The Florida Gators promoted Garrick McGee from analyst to quarterbacks coach Friday, filling a vacancy created by Brian Johnson's departure to the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles.
McGee spent the 2020 season working behind the scenes at Florida after a two-year stint at Missouri. The former Alabama-Birmingham head coach has bounced from job to job for most of the past decade.
His resume includes stops at Illinois (2016-17), Louisville (2014-15), UAB (2012-13), Arkansas (2008-11), Northwestern (2004-07), UNLV (2003), Toledo (2002) and Northern Iowa (1999). He also worked as a quality control coach for the NFL's Jacksonville Jaguars (2000-01).
