Before joining the Buckeyes last January, Guerrieri was the co-defensive coordinator at Duke from 2018-21, a role he was promoted into after Jim Knowles left Duke for Oklahoma State. He was one of several support staffers who had previous experience working with Knowles that Ohio State brought in last year to help Knowles implement his new defensive scheme.
