The Tennessee Vols have a second on-field staff opening to fill this offseason.
Earlier this month, running backs coach Jerry Mack accepted the same position with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The search for Mack's replacement is ongoing.
On Thursday, news broke that linebackers coach Brian Jean-Mary is leaving Rocky Top to return to Michigan.
Jean-Mary previously served as the Wolverines' linebackers coach in 2020 before joining Josh Heupel's staff at Tennessee in 2021.
Michigan promoted Sherrone Moore (who played at Oklahoma when Heupel was an assistant coach for the Sooners) to head coach earlier this offseason to replace Jim Harbaugh.
Jean-Mary and Moore worked together at Michigan in 2020. They were also on staff together at Louisville from 2010 to 2013.
Here are five potential replacements for Jean-Mary at Tennessee.
