Maryland Extends Football Coach Michael Locksley's Contract Through 2027

Maryland football coach Mike Locksley will be paid an average of $6.1 million annually over the five-year deal.
The contract runs through the 2027 campaign, and it will be extended by one season if Maryland wins seven or more games in 2023.
Locksley was hired as the head coach ahead of the 2019 season after he was the offensive coordinator for Alabama.
The Terrapins went 7-6 in 2021 and ended their campaign with a Pinstripe Bowl victory over Virginia Tech and then followed that up with an 8-5 effort in 2022.
Locksley has the team set up for even more success in the future since Maryland finished the 2022 recruiting cycle with the No. 31 class and the 2023 cycle with the No. 36 class.
