Michigan’s new offensive coordinator will be the third-highest paid assistant coach on staff, according to contract terms obtained Monday.

Josh Gattis, who signed a memorandum of understanding with the university on Thursday, has agreed to a three-year deal that pays him an annual salary of $900,000. MLive was provided a copy of Gattis' memorandum of understanding from the university via a public records request.

Additionally, Gattis, who turns 35 on Tuesday, will be eligible for up to $400,000 per year in bonuses based upon team and offensive performance goals to be set by head coach Jim Harbaugh, pushing his potential pay to as high as $1.3 million per year.

Michigan has two other assistant coaches on staff making at least $1 million annually: assistant head coach and passing-game coordinator Pep Hamilton and defensive coordinator Don Brown.

Gattis is also set to receive a $200,000 signing bonus by Feb. 9, common for high-profile hires such as this. He comes to Michigan from Alabama, where he served as wide receivers coach and co-offensive coordinator during the 2018 season.

Prior to his time in Tuscaloosa, Gattis spent four seasons as wide receivers coach at Penn State, two seasons coaching wideouts at Vanderbilt and one season at Western Michigan.

If Gattis leaves for another job prior to the expiration date on his contract, Jan. 10, 2022, he will owe Michigan the following: $400,000 if he leaves during his first year, or $250,000 if he leaves during his second or third years. If Gattis leaves for a head coaching job elsewhere, he will owe Michigan nothing.

Michigan has also agreed not to block Gattis from interviewing for potential NFL jobs.

Gattis is already on the job in Ann Arbor, where he arrived Saturday alongside his wife, Tracey, and two girls, Valentina and Serafina.

He tweeted out Sunday evening his offensive philosophy, one that is expected to get Michigan’s receivers more involved in 2019.
