Michigan Defensive Coordinator Mike MacDonald Expected to Return to Baltimore Ravens After One Year in Ann Arbor

, who first reported that Macdonald was expected to accept the job with the Ravens, Macdonald has already stopped recruiting for Michigan and has not been on the trail with the rest of the Wolverines’ coaches this week.

Macdonald had a big impact in his lone season as Michigan’s defensive coordinator, leading a defense that ranked eighth nationally in points allowed per game and 20th nationally in yards allowed per game while leading the Wolverines to a Big Ten title and a College Football Playoff berth.

Now, Michigan will be back in the market for a new defensive coordinator for the second year in a row after parting ways with Brown following the 2020 season. If the Wolverines choose to promote from within, potential candidates for the job could include defensive passing game coordinator and defensive backs coach Steve Clinkscale and newly hired defensive line coach Mike Elston, who just joined the Wolverines earlier this month after 12 years at Notre Dame.

Unsure about the timing, but I think there's traction with Mike Macdonald and the Ravens. At least Michigan is preparing for that possibility. If Macdonald departs, Michigan would have a couple of internal options with Steve Clinkscale and newly hired D-line coach Mike Elston.Macdonald returns to the Ravens after just one year away from the organization, as he was previously an assistant coach for the Ravens from 2014-20.

One win and the hype implodes

Something shady going on up there?

John said 'alright Jim I'll loan you this dude for a year so you can have a good season and not be viewed as a joke anymore and then dart for the NFL, but you're giving him right back'

funny how ol jim thinks ryan day was born on third base when he gets nfl coordinators handed down to him from his brother when in a time of need

Boo! That means Harbaugh is gone.

Gotta assume Jim is on his way out then, right?

This is why Jimmy’s campaigning for an nfl job.

Seems like he wouldn't leave that quickly unless Jim was leaving UM.

Another D assistant leaves. Harbaugh is going to the NFL.

Lol the John Harbaugh teet giveth and the John Harbaugh teet taketh away

Lolololol that's so meatchicken!

Don't think John does this if Jimmy hasn't already taken a job.

John wants his toy back.
