ESPN.com cites a tough job ahead for Pitt offensive coordinator Matt Canada

ESPN continued its offseason factory of articles this week and recently looked at some of the more difficult coordinator jobs in the ACC. Checking in all the way at No. 2 in the Atlantic Division?

2. Matt Canada, Pittsburgh offensive coordinator. Canada inherits an offense that returns its starting quarterback, an experienced offensive line, a former ACC player of the year and last season’s top offensive rookie. So what’s the problem? Well, the Panthers lose Tyler Boyd, who was responsible for 43 percent of the Panthers’ receptions last season. Canada has the benefit of returning deep threat Dontez Ford, who averaged 19 yards per reception last season.
