The Michigan Wolverines have had a carousel of defensive line coaches to start 2024.
The Wolverines finished the 2023 season with Mike Elston as the defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator, but he departed for the Los Angeles Chargers in the NFL with Jim Harbaugh on February 6. To replace Elston, newly appointed head coach, Sherrone Moore, hired Greg Scruggs from the Wisconsin Badgers, but two weeks after accepting the position, Scruggs resigned due to being charged with an OWI.
To find a second replacement, Moore poached Western Michigan’s defensive coordinator and defensive line coach Lou Esposito, who was with the Broncos from 2017-23 and was hired by Memphis in January of this year.
