Chris Partridge hired by Michigan as assistant coach
Michigan is expected to hire former Ole Miss defensive coordinator Chris Partridge as an assistant, according to On3’s Matt Zenitz.
Partridge is no stranger to Michigan. The defensive coach worked at the school from 2015-19 under Jim Harbaugh.
Now, the two reunite in Ann Arbor. Partridge was replaced at Ole Miss by former Alabama defensive coordinator Pete Golding.
Partridge coached at Paramus Catholic (N.J.) from 2003-04 and then Lafayette in 2005. He also coached at The Citadel from 2006-07.
