Georgia is expected to hire back UNC’s Stacy Searels as UGA’s new offensive line coach. The 56-year old Georgia native was the Dawgs OL coach from 2007-2010. @Dawgshq first reported the move.

Not known as a big recruiter. Struggled to develop OL at Texas and Miami.

Nice job at UNC though.

Not crazy about but I'll defer to Kirby.

No coach in UGA history has done a better job hiring assistants.

I guess it goes to the question of if a coach can evolve over 10+ years.

Coaches can definitely improve. Learn from mistakes.
But can they evolve?

This goes in the "one to watch" category

I remember when he was at Georgia before. Can't say that I remember much about him. Georgia, as a team, has much more talent now than when he was here.

He has 11 more years of experience now than when he was here before. A coach can always get better at his craft.

Seems like he played at Auburn during the Pat Dye era.

Full circle. Crazy, he was highly regarded and then he wasnt. But luke much of this staff, redemption is sweet side effect of kirbys relentlessness.

Any chance Bobo had a hand in this? He was OC those years Searels was OL coach before.

How many of Richt’s old assistants does that make now…that Kirby has rehired back to Georgia?

And Kirby himself is a former Richt assistant.

Is Kirby shifting from Sick Naban to Rark Micht for chapter2?? Stay tuned

Terrible hire. We had bad OL when he was here last time. Couldn't recruit.
