Just when it seemed that the Michigan football staff was set, it turns out, as the college football world turns, not so much.
Just days before the Wolverines were set to embark upon spring practice, which starts next week, one of the returning assistants appears to be on the move. Michigan had seemingly solidified its coaching staff on Jan. 23, with the reported hire of Ron Bellamy, but the defensive side is back in flux again. As first reported by Rivals’ Chris Balas, linebackers coach Brian Jean-Mary is departing for Tennessee to serve under new head coach Josh Heupel.
It’s unclear at this point what his new role will be in Knoxville.

Jean-Mary was with the program for one year and had been known as a voracious recruiter. This off-season, his job appeared to be in jeopardy as Michigan courted Christian Robinson, who remained at Florida.
Stay tuned as this story progresses.
