UWM is not confirming the report at this time.
The Panthers fired head coach Rob Jeter last month after his team failed to make a postseason tournament, despite winning 20 games.
His Panthers twice made the NCAA tournament in his 11 years at the mid-major school.
Jordan has been part of five straight Michigan teams that have made the NCAA Tournament, including a 2013 Final Four trip.
He previously was an assistant at Butler (his alma mater, 2003-07) and Iowa (2007-10). While playing at Butler, he helped the Bulldogs make the NCAA Tournament three times.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
