The Miami Hurricanes relieved defensive coordinator Lance Guidry of his duties on Tuesday.
Head coach Mario Cristobal made the announcement three days after the No. 13 Hurricanes (10-3) fell 42-41 to No. 18 Iowa State (11-3) in the Pop-Tarts Bowl in Orlando, Fla.
Miami dropped three of its last four games following a 9-0 start, also falling 28-23 at Georgia Tech on Nov. 9 and 42-38 at Syracuse on Nov. 30.
Guidry, 53, just completed his second season as the defensive coordinator for the Hurricanes after serving in the same role at Marshall, Southeastern Louisiana, McNeese State and Western Kentucky.
“I want to first thank Coach Guidry for his contributions to the University of Miami,” Cristobal said in a news release. “In a continuous effort to always improve all aspects of our program, I have decided to make a change on defense. We will move forward and make decisions that provide our players, staff and program the best opportunity to win and develop at the highest level.”
The Hurricanes allowed 25.3 points per game in 2024, ranked 70th out of 134 FBS programs.
