Michael Sid Canales (born June 21, 1961) is an American college football coach and former player. He is the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Southeastern University, positions he has held since 2023. He previously was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the University of North Texas, a position he held from 2010 to 2015.
