Holliday leaves N.C. State for Florida

Florida Coach Urban Meyer announced the hiring of John Holliday of N.C. State. Holliday coached receivers for the Wolfpack as well as serving as associate head coach. His position assignment has not been announced yet but he has recruiting connections in south Florida. Holliday previously coached at West Virginia.

Holliday is the second coach to leave Chuck Amato's staff this off-season. Wolfpack Defensive Coordinator Reggie Herring already left to take the same job at Arkansas after being offered the job by his good friend Houston Nutt.
