He is the best recruiter in the country. The calculus would seem to be that whatever other issues he may have will be overcome by the talent he brings in. If he gets the MD job, it will be far tougher getting kids out of the DMV.
Sounds like he received some other phone calls...
How'd that workout elevating Kood Kid to OC because he could recruit.
Id hire this guy to run an offense any day of the week. Straight out of Mattydale in the early 80's. I bet he has 3 pairs of roller skates and listens to nothing but George Tgood and Ted Nugent
Locksley is probably the best Maryland can hope for right now.
Perhaps true, but, we also weren't getting those 5 star kids out of the DMV anyway, apologies to Ed Hendrix. All I know is the guy was a disaster at New Mexico and not just in the wins and losses department. Not sure he will be able to make MD a winner in the B10 east, regardless of talent. Does having Tua and Bama's OL make you an amazing offensive guru? Not sure. Seems that a lot of coaches have been successful working alongside Saban. Is he that good of a teacher, because Locksley has struggled a ton when not simply working as a recruiter.He is the best recruiter in the country.

What am I missing here? When Addazio took over, BC was a mess. They’re now in back to back bowls. Wtfare they expecting?

Love this quote from the article:What am I missing here? When Addazio took over, BC was a mess. They’re now in back to back bowls. Wtfare they expecting?
Brown will be a junior and if Dillon stays healthy, they could have a good year. A couple of years ago I didnt think they were going to stay D1 in football or basketball.

Head coach? With no coordinator experience? PASSI think the one coach we cannot afford to lose is Nick Monroe. He is killing it on the recruiting trail. If Dino left my hope would be that he would be given an interview for the head coach position.
Someone like Dillion who is going to get the ball 30 times a game needs a strong OL to run behind. They graduated a ton of multi year starters, plus lose a ton of the defensive side of the ball. BC should take a pretty big step back. Between them and Louisville to start the preseason in the atlantic basementBrown will be a junior and if Dillon stays healthy, they could have a good year.

I was thinking that since he has been there for 6 years, he had established a good lineman development program on both sides of the ball. Plus they did lose their OC, could be Dazz's last year unless he coaches he butt off.Someone like Dillion who is going to get the ball 30 times a game needs a strong OL to run behind.

Swinney was the Assistant HC two years prior and then OC for half the season before taking over. I’m all for giving opportunities to young, unproven coaches but career positional coach with zero origanizational leadership experience is a bit of a stretch.I have no clue about Monroe's coaching chops, but this guy's been ok.

What he pays his coordinators probably helps.
