How Michigan Football’s first-year coordinators have fared in recent years

Despite its recent run of on-field success, the Michigan football program has been something of a revolving door for offensive and defensive coordinators. This is usually the case for premier programs, as assistants generally follow the same cycle of being promoted from within, serving as a coordinator for a few years and eventually leaving for a head coaching job.

Michigan has been fortunate to have turnover on its coaching staff come for the right reasons. But this year, the Wolverines see themselves on the other side of the equation, as Chip Lindsey was brought in to replace Kirk Campbell after the offense was one of the worst in the country in 2024.
