A six-pack of Hurricanes notes on a Wednesday:
• UM is expected to hire legendary Georgia prep high school coach Jess Simpson as its news defensive line coach, according to a source.
Simpson’s expected hiring, originally reported by insidetheu.com, would give UM another strong recruiter in Georgia, where this staff already is well-positioned because of Mark Richt’s long history coaching there, as well as several of his assistants.
Simpson, who replaces Alabama-bound Craig Kuligowski, was a defensive assistant for the Atlanta Falcons in 2017 and spent the 2016 season as the defensive line coach and assistant head coach for Georgia State.
