Maryland football assistant George Helow named safeties coach at Michigan

Helow, who served as special teams coordinator and inside linebackers for the Terps this past season, joined coach Jim Harbaugh’s staff alongside new defensive backs/co-defensive coordinator Maurice Linguist on Wednesday. Ravens linebackers coach Mike Macdonald was hired as Michigan defensive coordinator earlier this week.

“Maurice and George are outstanding additions to our defensive coaching staff,” Harbaugh said in a statement. “They are highly regarded and well-respected coaches who have worked with some of the top defensive minds in college football. Their experience at some of the top programs in the country will benefit our team and student-athletes.
