The Vanderbilt University Commodores are expected to hire Baltimore Ravens defensive backs coach Jesse Minter as their new defensive coordinator, according to a report via Twitter on Tuesday morning from Yahoo Sports' Pete Thamel.
Minter, a 2005 College of Mount St. Joseph graduate and four-year football letterwinner at MSJ, spent two seasons as a graduate assistant coach for the Cincinnati Bearcats in 2008 and 2009. He is the son of Rick Minter, who was UC's head coach from 1994 to 2003.
Minter has been a defensive coordinator at Georgia State and Indiana State. He joined the Ravens as an assistant coach under Miami University graduate and former UC special teams coordinator John Harbaugh in 2017.
UC offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock interviewed last week for the same position at Vanderbilt, according to multiple reports.
Last month, Vanderbilt named Clark Lea - Notre Dame's defensive coordinator for the past three seasons - its new head coach.
