Miami football hires Ishmael Aristide as linebackers coach

In an offseason filled with turnover for head coach Manny Diaz and the Miami Hurricanes defensive coaching staff, the Canes made another change this week, hiring Ishmael Aristide as the team’s new outside linebackers coach.

This move comes on the heels of newly hired linebackers coach Travis Williams leaving UM after just 17 days to join the University of Central Florida as their defensive coordinator.

“We’re excited to welcome Ishmael to the Hurricanes program,” Diaz said. “He is a sharp defensive mind and relentless recruiter who will be a great addition to our coaching staff.”

Aristide last worked at Texas A&M, where he served as a defensive analyst for the previous two seasons.
