SMU football has found its next defensive coordinator. The school will hire Florida Atlantic defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt, a source told The Dallas Morning News. He’ll replace Kevin Kane, who left for an associate head coach job with Illinois a week ago.

Leavitt was most recently the defensive coordinator at Florida Atlantic, where he spent one season under head coach Willie Taggart.

Tough blow for Willie. He needs someone like Leavitt on staff to hold his hand

Kevin Kane (LBs) might be worth a call before Leavitt decides he wants to keep him.

Not a shoe-in for the position by any means (Kane that is), but worth a look while some "flux" going on over there at SMU.

I think our list is now pretty short since Jones has been hired and he has weighed in.
