On Sunday, Sports Illustrated's Thayer Evans first reported that Michigan had hired Boston College defensive coordinator Don Brown for the same position to replace D.J. Durkin, who left to become Maryland's head coach, and Michigan confirmed the move on Monday. The hire has been universally praised:
SI is reporting that #Michigan has hired #BC's Don Brown as Wolverines new defensive coordinator. That'd be a terrific hire for Jim Harbaugh

Everyone can have their own opinion but I don't think there's a better defensive coordinator in college football.
