Georgia Tech Running Backs Coach Mike Daniels Resigns From Position

Mike Daniels has resigned halfway into his first year as the running backs coach

Halfway through his first season as the Georgia Tech running backs coach, Mike Daniels has resigned from his position the school announced today via a press release. Donald Hill-Eley is going to assume the role of the new running backs coach for the Yellow Jackets for the rest of the season. Eley is the father of Yellow Jackets linebacker Ace Eley and has been a longtime coach. 

Daniels was in his first season at Georgia Tech after coming over from the University of Buffalo and was known to be an energetic recruiter and coach. There has not been a reason given as of yet for his resignation. 

In the press release, interim head coach Brent Key made a brief comment on Daniel's resignation: 

“I thank Mike for his contributions to our program and student-athletes and wish him the best in the future,” 

With six games left to go this season and the Yellow Jackets on a two-game winning streak, this is strange timing for sure.
