Anthony Campanile’s Michigan contract has steep penalties for leaving early

New Michigan defensive assistant Anthony Campanile signed a two-year contract that will pay $415,000 annually, but there are some interesting caveats designed to limit his departure to a Big Ten school.

This is more intriguing considering defensive line coach Greg Mattison and linebackers coach Al Washington recently left Michigan for arch-rival Ohio State.

Campanile joins Jim Harbaugh’s staff after working last season at Boston College as co-defensive coordinator. He signed a memorandum of understanding last Friday, according to his MOU obtained by The Detroit News through an open-records request.

His position has not yet been assigned.
