Joe Battaglia is in his second year at Georgia Tech and his first season as a graduate assistant coach under head coach Geoff Collins.
Battaglia served as an offensive analyst at Georgia Tech in 2019. He came to Tech after two seasons on Collins’ staff at Temple.
Battaglia was also as an offensive graduate assistant under Collins at Temple. He has also worked under Georgia Tech offensive coordinator Dave Patenaude for the past nine seasons, first as an undergraduate assistant at Coastal Carolina (2011-14), then as an analyst at CCU (2015-16), a G.A. at Temple (2017-18) and an analyst at Tech (2019).
During Battaglia’s time at Temple, the Owls posted two of the three highest single-season passing totals in school history and scored the most points in school history in 2018. While he was at CCU, the Chanticleers set nearly every offensive record in school history, including single-season scoring, total offense, rushing yards and passing yards.
A Syracuse, N.Y. native, Battaglia played football as a freshman at Hartwick (N.Y.) college in 2010 before sustaining an injury and transferring to Coastal Carolina. He graduated from CCU in 2014 with a bachelor’s degree in business administration.
