First-year Maryland offensive coordinator Matt Canada received a three-year deal that will pay him $650,000 annually, according to a copy of his contract obtained through a public-records request.
With a $450,000 annual salary and additional $200,000 in supplemental income, Canada is tied with defensive coordinator Andy Buh for the highest-paid assistant on Terps coach DJ Durkin’s staff. Still, the compensation marks a pay cut from his previous post. As the offensive coordinator at LSU, Canada was due $1.5 million annually over his three-year contract, among the highest salaries in the country.
