According to multiple reports, Ole Miss has filled its vacancy at defensive coordinator.
Mike MacIntyre, head coach at Colorado the past six seasons (2013-18), is joining Matt Luke’s staff in Oxford. MacIntyre was a long-time assistant, including coaching wide receivers and defensive backs at Ole Miss (1999-2002), before becoming a head coach in 2010 at San Jose State. His most recent stint as a defensive coordinator was at Duke for the 2008 and ’09 seasons.
MacIntyre, who will reportedly make more than $1 million per season, replaces Wesley McGriff, who was dismissed in November.
