FIU expected to name Memphis Defensive Coordinator Mike MacIntyre as Head Coach

Sources confirmed to Underdog Dynasty that Memphis defensive coordinator Mike MacIntyre will be named the fifth full-time head coach in FIU history on Thursday afternoon. As first reported by UDD, the 56-year-old MacIntyre will take over an FIU team that is coming off a 1-11 season and hasn’t won an FBS game since defeating crosstown rival Miami in November of 2019.

Barring a last-minute change, per sources, Memphis DC Mike MacIntyre will be the next head coach at FIU.
