Colbert Joins Napier's Florida Staff

Gators hire former colleague as assistant coach

Colbert brings wealth of experience to Florida

Keary Colbert has been named the new assistant coach for the Florida Gators football team, head coach Billy Napier announced Wednesday. Colbert joins the Gators after spending the past two seasons as the wide receivers coach at the University of Texas.

Colbert has a long history with Napier, having worked together at Louisiana-Lafayette from 2018-2020. During that time, the Ragin' Cajuns offense ranked among the most prolific in the country, and Colbert's wide receivers were a major part of that success.

Colbert is known for his ability to develop young talent, and he has a knack for getting the most out of his players. He is also a strong recruiter, and he is expected to play a key role in helping Napier build a championship-caliber program at Florida.

"I am excited to add Keary to our staff," Napier said. "He is an experienced coach who has a proven track record of success. I know he will be a valuable asset to our program."

Colbert is excited to be joining the Gators and is looking forward to the challenge of helping them compete for championships. “I am grateful for the opportunity to work with Coach Napier again,” Colbert said. “I believe in his vision for this program, and I am excited to be a part of it.”

Conclusion

The hiring of Colbert is a major coup for Napier and the Gators. Colbert is a rising star in the coaching ranks, and he is expected to play a significant role in helping Florida build a championship-caliber program. The addition of Colbert to the staff is a clear sign that Napier is committed to building a winner in Gainesville.
