Locksley was by far the team's highest-paid assistant, with defensive line coach Chad Wilt, tight ends coach John Dunn and secondary coach Darrell Perkins making the least of any of the assistants.
Locksley was the 14th-highest paid assistant in the country and tops in the Big Ten. Auburn defensive coordinator (and now South Carolina head coach) Will Muschamp was No. 1 overall.
DJ Durkin, Maryland's new head coach, was tied for the second-best-paid Big Ten coach after Locksley, making $800,000 at Michigan as the Wolverines' defensive coordinator.
