In an unexpected blow to the Kansas football coaching staff, it appears OC Brent Dearmon is expected to fill a role at Middle Tennessee.

The unfortunate news of OC Brent Dearmon‘s departure from the Kansas football program has surfaced tonight on Twitter and it puts the Jayhawks in a tough position.

While it was always a possibility, Dearmon had just recently been promoted to OC for Kansas in 2019 and his absence in 2021 will be another blow to the team’s rebuilding efforts.
