Georgia Tech Football: Jackets make it official, hire Nate Woody as Defensive Coordinator

The worse kept secret through the last few weeks was that the Georgia Tech football program would be hiring Appalachian State defensive coordinator Nate Woody for the same position. The Jackets were left looking for a new DC after Ted Roof left The Flats for North Carolina State. On Saturday, the program made it official.

It’s official! Our new defensive coordinator is @CoachNateWoody, who joins us after 5 years at Appalachian State.
