The Georgia State Panthers and head coach Dell McGee have promoted former Georgia Bulldogs linebacker Juwan Taylor. Taylor is now Georgia State’s inside linebackers coach. He spent the 2024 college football season with Georgia State as a graduate assistant.
McGee previously was the running backs coach at Georgia under Kirby Smart from 2016-2024. McGee and Georgia State just went 3-9 in 2024. Georgia State had a memorable upset over Vanderbilt in September, but not much else went right for the Panthers.
Juwan Taylor played college football for Georgia from 2015-2018 and recorded 76 total tackles in his UGA career. Taylor severed on Georgia’s staff as a player development assistant before being let go. It is good to see Taylor making the most of his opportunity with Georgia State.
Dell McGee and Georgia State hired several former Georgia football coaches last offseason including analyst Ryan Williams and Manrey Saint-Amour, is Georgia State’s offensive line coach.
So far, head coach Kirby Smart and Georgia have not experienced much coaching staff turnover this offseason.
