Multiple outlets have reported that Baltimore Ravens LBs coach Mike Macdonald will be Michigan’s next defensive coordinator, but he still has a job to do before he heads to Ann Arbor.
Macdonald will be sticking with the Ravens for their playoff run, which will be continuing into the NFL Divisional Round after beating the Tennessee Titans 20-13 on Sunday.
The Ravens defense, along with Macdonald’s linebackers, buckled down enough to win a game that turned out to be a battle.
From a philosophical standpoint, the Ravens defense is similar to the one Michigan’s had in recent year under Don Brown.
