Georgia Position Coach to Miss Orange Bowl

Georgia will be without one of its position coaches when the Bulldogs face Florida State in the Orange Bowl on Saturday.

While most of the attention around Georgia's Orange Bowl matchup against Florida State has focused on which players won't be available for the game, on Wednesday, the Georgia program announced that the Bulldogs will be without one of their position coaches when the team takes the field against Florida State on Saturday.

Offensive line coach Stacey Searels did not travel to Miami with the team as he recovers from pneumonia. The 58-year-old veteran offensive line coach is expected to make a full recovery. In Searels' absence, Georgia offensive quality control coordinator Manrey Saint-Amour is stepping in to coach the Bulldog offensive line in the Orange Bowl.

Saint-Amour served as the offensive line coach at Charleston Southern in 2022. Before that, he served as a graduate assistant at Alabama and Florida State. As a player at Georgia Southern from 2011-2014, Saint-Armour started 36 games for the Eagles and was an All-Sun Belt selection in 2014.
