Kennesaw State football coach Brian Bohannon has hired Brett Gilliland to be quarterbacks and B-backs coach.

Gilliland has spent the previous three seasons at Georgia Southern, where he worked with the B-backs in 2010, tight ends and tackles in 2011 and wide receivers last year.

Gilliland spent three years as a graduate assistant (2006-08) and then offensive assistant (2009) at Georgia Tech, where he worked with Bohannon.

Gilliland is Bohannon’s sixth hire, joining offensive coordinator Grant Chesnut, A-backs assistant Tim Glanton, yet-to-be-assigned assistants Liam Klein and Shane Bowen. Jay Bailey was also hired as director of football operations.

Gilliland played quarterback at West Alabama (2000-03), where he graduated as the school’s career passing leader (6,689 yards).

Dogs have resolve but they’re running out of bodies

If nothing else, Georgia has ensured at least one thing about its season. Regardless of where the rest of the schedule takes them, whether its to an SEC championship, a BCS bowl bid or a national title, there will be no claims from outsiders that this team received too many breaks and escaped health issues, no suggestions that the road to success was lined with lollipops and unicorns.
