Ole Miss hires North Carolina’s Tray Scott as defensive line coach, per report

Ole Miss has a new defensive line coach. Tray Scott, the D-line coach for the North Carolina Tar Heels, will be leaving Chapel Hill to take over the same position in Oxford, FootballScoop has reported. Scott, who has spent the last two years at Carolina, returns to Oxford, where he spent the 2012 season as a defensive graduate assistant under Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze. The Rebel defensive line coach job opened up earlier this month when Chris Kiffin left the position to join his brother at FAU as the defensive coordinator.

An alumnus of and former letter winner at Arkansas Tech, Scott began his coaching career as an Arkansas Tech graduate assistant before working under Freeze in the role at both Arkansas State and Ole Miss.
