Whittingham Announces Change to Offensive Coaching Staff

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- University of Michigan J. Ira and Nicki Harris Family Head Football Coach Kyle Whittingham announced Sunday (Nov. 8) that offensive coordinator Jason Beck has been relieved of his duties, effective immediately.

"The results have not matched our desired outcome, and I felt that a change in leadership was required for our offense," said Whittingham. "We need to put our offensive players and the entire team in the best possible position to be successful.

"We appreciate the hard work and effort that Jason has dedicated to the program," added Whittingham. "Jason is a great man and coach, and unfortunately, it did not work out the way that we wanted it to at Michigan. We wish Jason and his family nothing but the best in the future."

Jim Harding will serve as the interim offensive coordinator for the remainder of the regular season. Whittingham will conduct a national search for the program's next offensive coordinator.
