Larry Fedora announced Tuesday that Keith Gilmore will be the next defensive line coach for the North Carolina football team.

Gilmore has been coaching for 28 years at several different programs. He started at Wayne State in 1985 and, most recently, was at Illinois from 2009-12. Gilmore spent six years working with current Cincinnati head coach Brian Kelly, including two years with the Bearcats.

“Keith is a knowledgeable defensive line coach who brings a wealth of experience at the collegiate level to Chapel Hill,” Fedora said in the release.

“He has previous experience with our defensive coaches, and I believe he is a great fit for us. He does an exceptional job of building relationships and getting the most out of his players.”
