Almost two weeks after demoting Don Pellum from Defensive Coordinator to Linebackers Coach, the Oregon Ducks made a move as quietly as they could on a day that was dominated by the NFL Playoffs and named new Defensive Coordinator. The choice was former Michigan Head Coach Brady Hoke according to GoDucks.com.
Brady Hoke was fired from Michigan following last season and spent this year as a radio host for Sirius XM with their College Football Coverage. In replacing Pellum with Hoke, who has not been a true Defensive Coordinator since his high school days, some may be concerned about his qualifications.
