Two coaches are leaving the South Carolina program to take NFL coaching jobs.
Both of those coaches happen to be guys who played and coached at the University of Georgia.
Thomas Brown, who played running back at Georgia from 2004-07, has joined the Los Angeles Rams staff as the running backs coach, where he will coach former Dawg Todd Gurley.

After their collegiate playing careers, both players returned to Georgia to coach shortly after testing out the NFL.
McClendon coached the running backs and receivers in Athens from 2009-2015, after spending two seasons as a grad assistant at Georgia.
Brown coached at Georgia in 2011 as a strength coach and then came back in 2015 to coach the running backs, which at the time was Nick Chubb and Sony Michel.
Both ended up on the same staff at South Carolina under none other than former Georgia defensive back Will Muschamp, who is head coach of the Gamecocks.
Georgia ties run deep.
