Former Tennessee offensive coordinator Mike DeBord is back in college football.

He has joined Jim Harbaugh's Michigan football staff as an analyst, according to the school's athletics department directory. The position is an off-the-field role not counted among the 10 NCAA-allowed assistants.

"It’s GREAT to be a MICHIGAN WOLVERINE!!!" DeBord tweeted on Monday.

DeBord was Butch Jones' offensive coordinator for the 2015-16 seasons, when the Vols won 18 games behind a prolific offense. Tennessee set single-season school records for total points and touchdowns in 2016.

DeBord left UT after two seasons to become Indiana's offensive coordinator. He served in that role for two seasons before he was the offensive coordinator in 2019 for the San Diego Fleet of the now-defunct Alliance of American Football.

DeBord, 64, is a native of Muncie, Indiana.

This will be his third stint at Michigan. He was a Wolverines assistant from 1993-99, a stretch that included three seasons as offensive coordinator. He returned as an assistant from 2004-07, culminating with two seasons as offensive coordinator.

DeBord was Michigan's offensive coordinator in 1997, when the Wolverines won their last national title.
