Good results. Great recruiter. Most importantly, realistic.
Mike Denbrock joined the University of Cincinnati football coaching staff in January 2017 and will serve as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
A veteran of 30-plus years in the coaching profession, Denbrock has worked as both and offensive and defensive coordinator and coached every position on the offensive side of the ball.
Most recently, Denbrock was at Notre Dame from 2010-16 in a variety of roles. He coached tight ends (2010-11), outside receivers and was the passing game coordinator (2012-13), served as offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach (2014) and was the associate head coach and wide receivers coach (2015-16). During his second stint with the Fighting Irish, Denbrock coached in six bowl games, including the 2012 BCS National Championship.
Known as a dynamic recruiter, Denbrock is a strong offensive mind who had success as the Irish’s primary play caller the past two seasons as the offense averaged 443 yards per game and close to seven yards per play over the past 25 games. In 2012, he was tabbed as one of the top 25 recruiters in the nation by Rivals.com and one of country's top 50 recruiters by 247Sports.com.
Denbrock had a trio of strong wideouts at Notre Dame in 2016, including Torii Hunter Jr., Equanimeous St. Brown, and freshman Kevin Stepherson.
Hunter had 38 catches and three TDs in an injury-shortened season. St. Brown led the Irish with 58 receptions for 961 yards and nine touchdowns. He ranked fifth in the nation in receiving yards among sophomores and freshmen, while he ranked among the country’s top 40 receivers in both receiving touchdowns and receiving yards. Stepherson ranked as one of the Top-30 receivers in the NCAA FBS, averaging almost 18.5 yards per reception (18.48).
In 2015, he guided the Irish offense to 466.4 yards of total offense per game in 2015, including three games with over 500 yards of total offense (Texas, UMass and Stanford). UND averaged more yards of total offense per game just once (2005) since setting the school record of 510.5 yards of total offense per game (1970).
Notre Dame had seven offensive plays of at least 70 yards, which tied for the most in the FBS, and a school-record 13 offensive TDs of at least 50 yards
