Report: Georgia to hire ex-Cedar Grove star Bryson Allen-Williams as defensive analyst
ATHENS — Kirby Smart is adding to his coaching staff it seems, with Matt Zenitz of 247Sports reporting that Georgia is hiring USC assistant linebackers coach Bryson Allen-Williams to its staff.
Allen-Williams is expected to join Georgia as an off-field analyst. Georgia recently lost analyst Blaine Miller, who took an on-field coaching job at Syracuse. Miller worked with the inside linebackers under Glenn Schumann. Schumann will enter his fourth season as Georgia’s defensive coordinator and 10th as Georgia’s inside linebackers coach.
A Georgia native, Allen-Williams was a 4-star recruit out of Cedar Grove High School in Ellenwood. He signed with South Carolina as a member of its 2014 recruiting class before spending his five-year career with the Gamecocks, playing under both Steve Spurrier and Will Muschamp, who is an analyst on the staff at Georgia.
Allen-Williams was a linebacker for the Gamecocks, making 22 starts in his career and finishing with 176 career tackles. His defensive coordinator for the final three seasons in Columbia was Travaris Robinson, who is Georgia’s co-defensive coordinator and safeties coach.
Allen-Williams spent the past two seasons at USC as a quality-control coach. Before that, he also worked at North Carolina and Georgia State as an analyst..
