Since Matt Canada became Maryland’s interim head coach, he has continued to stress that he’s still the offensive coordinator and his job is to call the right plays. That’s what Maryland hired him to do in January, and it’s what he has done through most of his career.
“I don’t really know Matt Canada, head coach,” quarterback Kasim Hill said Saturday after Maryland’s 34-29 season-opening upset of then-No. 23 Texas. “I know him more as Matt Canada, offensive coordinator.”
While the new title hasn’t changed Canada’s primary duties, it has altered game-day logistics.
