Tennessee LBs Coach Brian Jean-Mary Targeted For Power-5 Job

Jerry Mack, the coach of Tennessee’s running backs, left for the professional ranks earlier this week. After doing fantastic work with his group, Mack chose the same role with thecJaguars, which was a major loss for the Vols coaching staff. Brian Jean-Mary, the linebackers coach at Michigan, is currently being considered for the same position, and there may be interest.

According to Football Scoop, Jean-Mary and the Wolverines have started talking about a possible reunion in Ann Arbor. Although nothing is official or conclusive, Tennessee may lose another of its best assistants.

FootballScoop has learned from many sources that Brian Jean-Mary, the coach of the Vols’ linebackers, is a strong candidate to teach Michigan’s linebackers. Do you recognize this? Heupel & Co. hired Jean-Mary away from Michigan two years ago. However, after losing defensive coordinator Jesse Minter to the NFL’s Los Angeles Chargers and former head coach Jim Harbaugh to the NFL, the Wolverines are rebuilding their staff on both sides of the ball. Since then, Moore has appointed renowned NFL defensive coordinator Don “Wink” Martindale to oversee the Michigan defense. According to sources who spoke with FootballScoop on Tuesday, Moore and Martindale have started talking about Jean-Mary moving back to Ann Arbor, Michigan.” Scoop on Football: Brian Jean-Mary
