Georgia reveals contract details for Bryan McClendon, Mike Bobo

The Georgia Bulldogs are fresh off a national title but Kirby Smart clearly has no plans on slowing the momentum, and the contract details of his recently hired assistants reflect the program’s commitment to winning.

According to a Thursday report from the Athens Banner-Herald, Georgia will pay Bryan McClendon significantly more than its previous wide receivers coach.

In a somewhat surprising move, McClendon returned to the Bulldogs staff this week after being hired last month at Miami under Maro Cristobal’s new staff. He coached the previous two seasons with Cristobal at Oregon.

The Georgia Bulldogs will pay him $700,000 annually, according to information obtained Thursday in an open records request, the Athens Banner-Herald notes.

Cortez Hankton, who left for LSU, was paid $550,000 annually to coach the Bulldogs wide receivers.

Georgia also disclosed that new offensive analyst Mike Bobo will make $100,000 in base salary per year.

Bobo returned to the Georgia Bulldogs where he is a former quarterback and longtime assistant, coaching the quarterbacks and serving as offensive coordinator.

Offensive quality control assistant Buster Faulkner also got a $50,000 boost in base salary to $200,000 annually. That was effective on Dec. 15.
