BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana associate head coach Mike DeBord announced tonight his retirement after a 37-year career. DeBord posted an 80-33 (.708) overall record, including a 47-27 (.635) conference mark, in his nine years as an FBS offensive coordinator.
"Coach (Lloyd) Carr told me many years ago I would know when it was time to retire," DeBord said. "I didn't understand it at the time, but I do now. I am really looking forward to spending more time with my family and my grandkids."
DeBord spent the last two seasons on head coach Tom Allen's staff as associate head coach, offensive coordinator and tight ends coach.
