VanGorder played at Notre Dame from 2014-17 before spending his final season at Youngstown State in 2018. He began his coaching career at Georgia the following season, working as an offensive quality control coach for the Bulldogs from 2019-24.
The Eagles previously promoted Frazier to quarterbacks coach from passing game coordinator. With Frazier, VanGorder and new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, who arrived from the Packers, the coaching staff is charged with helping Jalen Hurts find consistency after an inconsistent season.
