Georgia offensive line graduate assistant Devonte Danzey is expected to be hired as an assistant coach at Abilene Christian, sources tell On3.

Danzey was a starting offensive lineman at Auburn, playing for the Tigers from 2013 to ’16. He was a graduate assistant at Indiana and Troy prior to being hired at Georgia.

“All the work that we did, I feel like it really paid off for us during the season,” Georgia offensive lineman Sedrick Van Pran said recently. “I can’t speak enough about the work that those guys put in. It means so much to me be a part of that and be the only offensive line ever to give up nine sacks in 15 games. It was truly a blessing. I’m super proud. We couldn’t do it without (offensive line coach) Stacey Searels, (analyst) Eddie Gordon and Devonte Danzey. We really appreciate all the work that everybody put in.”

Abilene Christian, which is in the Western Athletic Conference at the FCS level, finished the 2022 season with a 7-4 record.
