Nick Williams, a former Georgia defensive back and graduate assistant on Kirby Smart’s staff, is joining Jimbo Fisher at Texas A&M as a defensive analyst.
This is a loss that Georgia will certainly feel in regard to recruiting. Williams was one of the main coaches responsible for reeling in elite recruits, primarily on the defensive line and in the secondary. He played a key role in landing top talent like defensive backs Kelee Ringo, Lewis Cine, Deyon Bouie and current defensive tackle commit Bear Alexander.

According to DawgNation, Williams had been working with the defensive line under assistant coach Tray Scott.
Williams played for the Bulldogs as a defensive back, linebacker and special teamer after signing with Georgia in 2008. The former three-star prospect out of Bainbridge, Georgia played three years with UGA and saw action in 32 games.
Williams will join former UGA coach James Coley (former Bulldogs offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach) and Marshal Malchow (Georgia’s former Director of Player Personnel) in College Station.
