Addae started at safety for four seasons with the Mountaineers during his collegiate years from 2002-05. believe it or not he matched up against the Dawgs in the Sugar Bowl matchup in the ‘05 season against Georgia.
West Virginia led the nation in pass defense last season, allowing just 159.6 yards per game. Addae will replace Charlton Warren at Georgia who left after just two seasons to become defensive coordinator at Indiana.
On paper this is a very strong hire for the Bulldogs who will be without members of their core secondary who have declared for the 2021 NFL Draft.
