Newly crowned U of L defensive coordinator Bill Miller announced today that he is leaving Louisville to become co-defensive coordinator at Kansas. He's making the move in part to be closer to his 85-year-old father.

"The timing of this is opportunity is very unfortunate," said Miller. "But its an opportunity for me to be closer to my 85-year old father and my brother. I truly appreciate the opportunity Steve gave me at Louisville, and am grateful of the treatment that Tom Jurich and Steve also gave me while I was here. I don't expect many people to understand my decision, but this is something I had to do for my family."

Louisville now begins the search for its fourth defensive coordinator in 14 months.

Try as you may football, you will not take my smile on this day.
