Most recently, McMahon was the special teams coordinator at Tulane from 2023- 24; current head coach Jon Sumrall was there as well in 2024. Previously, he held the same position at LSU from 2018–2021.
In his official coaching bio at Tulane, it says, “The play of LSU’s special teams since McMahon took over that unit has gone a long way in the Tigers posting a 33-8 overall mark and claiming both the SEC and CFP National titles during that three-year span. LSU led the SEC in points by kicking in both 2018 and 2019 and finished No. 3 in the league in 2020."
“In 2020, McMahon’s special teams roster featured All-SEC selection punter Zach Von Rosenberg, who capped his career as one of the best to ever play the position for the Tigers. Von Rosenberg, a four-year starter, ranks No. 2 in LSU history in punting yards and punts and is No. 3 in career average."
Prior to landing at LSU, McMahon spent 11 years in the NFL with the New Orleans Saints, with nine of those years as a special teams coordinator. With the Gators, McMahon will assist first-year Florida special teams coordinator Johnathan Galante
Last season, Galante was nominated for the 30th annual Broyles Award, presented each year to college football's top assistant coach. The award is named after former Florida assistant Frank Broyles.
“Tulane’s special teams unit is the best in the American Conference leading the league in net punting, made field goals and field goal percentage while ranking second in kick returns average," the school highlighted in a Nov. 25 release.
"Tulane kicker Patrick Durkin leads the conference in field goals per game and field goal percentage. His 20 field goals this year are already the fourth most in school history for a single season. He also has three made kicks of 50+ including a long of 52 against Temple. His average of 8.5 points per leads all kickers and is sixth among all players. He is fourth among all players in the league in scoring with 93 points.
"Alec Clark leads the conference and is ranked fourth nationally with his average of 47.5 yards per kick. Anthony Brown-Stephens is placed fifth in the conference in kick return average at 23.3 yards per return.”
