With Jonathan Smith taking over at Michigan State football, there was a possibility that a few of the more well-regarded members of the staff could stay in the new regime for some continuity. We now know that MSU defensive line coach Diron Reynolds will not be one of those names sticking around.

On Sunday, it was reported by Chris Karpman of 247Sports that Reynolds will be joining the Arizona State staff in the same role, as defensive line coach.

Michigan State football hires new defensive line coach Diron Reynolds

MSU has their new defensive line coach

Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker had an opening on his coaching staff after defensive line coach Marco Coleman left East Lansing to take the same position at his alma mater, Georgia Tech. It took several weeks to fill the opening, but Mel Tucker has found the right man for the job.

Tucker has hired Diron Reynolds to take over as the new defensive line coach for the Spartans.

Reynolds has spent the last seven seasons as Stanford’s defensive line coach. Prior to that, Reynolds spent time at Oklahoma and in the NFL with the Minnesota Vikings and Miami Dolphins, all as a defensive line coach.

Welcome to the family, @Coach_Diron!
