GAINESVILLE, Fla.[/B]-Kerry Dixon II[/B] was hired Tuesday as Florida's wide receivers coach, head coach Jim McElwain[/B] announced. With Dixon's hire, the 2015 coaching staff is now complete. Dixon has spent 10 years coaching the offensive side of the ball, including one season as an offensive coordinator.
"Kerry is a young, energetic, up-and-coming coach," said McElwain. "He has strong recruiting ties throughout the state and as a former offensive coordinator he will bring value to the offensive game plan."
Dixon spent the 2014 season as the running backs coach at FIU in Miami. He led a running back group that rushed for nearly 1,500 yards on the season.

I remember when this cat played for Baylor.

He.has an impressive resume as a RB coach. I'm sure he will be a good WR coach. Recruiting ties to both Texas and south Florida.
 
Far as I can tell, pretty much a recruiting hire that could likely be kept long-term if things go well.
 
Like that he's been an OC before, specifically in a wide open attack. Between he, McElwain, and Skipper we should have a lot of good input on offense for Nuss. And he should help us recruit down there in the Miami area too.
 
I still have reason to believe that Lubick had accepted the UF WR job, but changed his mind and backed out after the national title game.

We all read the same articles saying the same thing, Paco.
