The Michigan Wolverines hired an experienced coach on Thursday afternoon, Mississippi State defensive coordinator Bob Shoop.
Shoop’s role remains to be seen but it’s likely he’ll be coaching safeties and/or linebackers for Michigan.
Who exactly is Bob Shoop, though?
Shoop’s 53 years old and has thirty years of coaching experience under his belt, 17 of which he’s served as a defensive coordinator. The past decade he’s had DC stops at Vanderbilt, Penn State, Tennessee, and Mississippi State.
“He’s a laid-back kind of guy,’ former Tennessee linebacker Darrin Kirkland said in 2016.
