CINCINNATI (AP) -Fourth-ranked Cincinnati went right back to Central Michigan to get its next coach.

The school announced the hiring of Butch Jones on Wednesday to replace Brian Kelly, who came from Central Michigan three years ago and built the Bearcats program into national prominence before leaving for Notre Dame last week.

Jones led the Chippewas to the Mid-American Conference championship and their first national ranking, finishing at No. 25. He agreed to a deal with Cincinnati earlier Wednesday and was introduced at an afternoon news conference.

The Bearcats (12-0) play Florida in the Sugar Bowl on Jan. 1. Central Michigan plays Troy in the GMAC Bowl on Jan. 6.
