After Ole Miss safeties coach Jason Jones was relieved of his duties earlier this month, Matt Luke had a vacancy on his staff. It sounds as though he’ll be filling it with a familiar name.
Former Ole Miss defensive coordinator Tyrone Nix is leaving his job at Virginia Tech to returning to Oxford, according to a statement released by Hokies head coach Justin Fuente on Monday.
“Our staff wishes Coach Nix and his family the very best as he returns to the state of Mississippi, a place where his family owns very deep ties,” the statement read.
