In his first year as the Seattle Seahawks’ head coach, Mike Macdonald put together a mish-mashed staff with wildly varying levels of experience. Arguably the most questionable hire that Macdonald made was naming Jay Harbaugh as his special teams coordinator. While he was coming off a national championship at Michigan, it’s also worth mentioning that his father was the head coach of that team, and regardless of whatever qualifications he may have had it’s tough to dismiss charges of nepotism. Harbaugh had a rough first year as the Seahawks’ coordinator on special teams, where ghastly mistakes were common – contributing to one of the league’s worst average starting field positions.
