Georgia Hires Former Aggies Coach Darrell Dickey as Analyst
In this story:
The Georgia Bulldogs hired former Texas A&M Aggies offensive coordinator Darrell Dickey on Monday afternoon as an offensive analyst, according to reports.
The Aggies moved on from Dickey this past offseason, hiring former Arkansas and Louisville coach Bobby Petrino as the team's new offensive coordinator.
Dickey, who was hired by Fisher in 2018, served as both offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach through the 2021 season.
Last year, Fisher moved Dickey from quarterbacks coach to tight ends coach in favor of former Auburn quarterback Dameyune Craig.
Dickey, 62, previously served as offensive coordinator for Utah State (2007-08), New Mexico (2009-10), Texas State (2011), and Memphis (2012-17) before leaving for Aggieland. A native of Galveston, Dickey also served as North Texas' head coach from 1998-2006, posting a 42–64 during his time in Denton.
Texas A&M's offense spiraled out of control in 2022 due to injuries and insufficient quarterback play. The Aggies ranked 82nd in passing offense (219.4 yards per game), 83rd in rushing offense (141.8 yards per game), 95th in total offense (361.2 yards per game), and 101st in scoring offense (22.6 points per game). Three different quarterbacks took reps this season.
Perhaps the lowest point of Texas A&M's season came in Week 2 in a 17-14 loss to Appalachian State. The Mountaineers' defense held the Aggies to 180 total yards of offense. Quarterback Haynes King threw for 97 yards and averaged 4.9 yards per play.
