Michigan has dismissed defensive coordinator Don Brown, according to Bruce Feldman of The Athletic.
Brown served as the Wolverines defensive coordinator since 2016. He was the former head coach at UMass and a defensive coordinator at Boston College before arriving in Ann Arbor.
In the last five years but with the exception of 2020, Brown's defenses were ranked top ten in the country. In 2016, Michigan was ranked second, sixth in 2017, eighth in 2018 and tenth in 2019.
Under Brown's leadership, 43 of 44 defensive starters earned All-Big Ten recognition (11 in 2016, '18-'19, 10 in 2017).
