Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 414979, member: 780"] I don't see it happening. Other than some short term money, there's nothing in it for Maryland or their fans or their alumni or anyone. If the University wants to do this, the furor is going to be huge. Flashback #1 - When Len Bias died of a drug overdose, there was a negative story in the Washington Post about the University of Maryland every day for a year and a half. That's over 500 days of incessant pounding. Flashback #2 - When Lefty Drissell was fired, the University President and the AD hired Bob Wade (a "Balmer" High School coach) to replace Lefty. 18 months later, Wade was fired, the AD was fired and the President was shuffled off the California. Maryland isn't a place where the Administration gets to do what it wants. Kirwin knows all of this. [/QUOTE]
