Wolverine247 has confirmed that former Florida defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin will take the same position at Michigan, giving the Wolverines their offensive and defensive coordinators under head coach Jim Harbaugh.

Durkin, 36, is considered one of the bright young defensive minds in the country, coaching under Harbaugh at Stanford and turning it into a full-fledged defensive coordinator spot under Will Muschamp at Florida, where the Gators ranked 9th in the country in total defense in 2014.

Durkin will join former Michigan defensive coordinator Greg Mattison on the current staff. The two worked together when Durkin was a graduate assistant at Notre Dame in 2003 and 2004.
