Will be interesting to see whom they hire and where he ends up.

Someone post the ballerina dance routine... please

So, you're saying he'll be available when Shafer gets let go at the end of the season?!:bat:

 

[NJCuse97]

What about their recruits? He had some good ones coming in

Guy would never have been fired at Uconn and yet left for a job at a middling football school.

Maybe he can go coach at Cheshire HS now?

Wasn't Mike Locksley a name that was thrown around this board as a successor to Greg Robinson? He is the current offensive coordinator and according to that article would be the interim head coach if they fire Randy Edsall.

Good luck with that, Terps.

I should feel no joy over this. Really I shouldn't.

Did you see the contract Umd gave him?

Under Armour is probably sending a private jet to Toledo, OH as we speak.

MD went from being a decent job to a bad one. When they were in the ACC they played yearly BC, Clemson, FSU, NC State, SU, UVA, Wake, WV which isn't all that hard to have a 10-3 against. Now they play Indiana, Michigan, Mich State, Penn State, Ohio State, Rutgers, West Virginia which isn't all that easy to have a 6-6 record against. They went from fighting for 3rd in the Atlantic to fighting for 5th in the East. Why did they leave again?

 

[OrangeMojo]

Not happy about this at all. If they actually get their hire right this time and with UA backing them, they're going to be a huge PIA to recruit against. Having Randy there was great for everyone else trying to recruit the mid-atlantic.

 

[HOFCeluck]

BTW...it always seemed like a dumb hire to me. They finished 9-4 and ranked in the top 25 Friedgen's last year. If you're going to push a guy out because you don't think that's good enough, then you better bring in a guy who accomplished more than winning the Big East by default and serving as a sacrificial lamb to Oklahoma.

Hold me closer tiny dancer.

I think the right guy could recruit DMV well.

That's a solid point. With all of that UA money they could make a big splashy hire. I'll be curious, though, to see if Dwayne Haskins and the rest of the current class stick with the school.

Who is the old dominion coach.

The next hire reeks of a Lane Kiffin type. Gonna b a total disaster I'm sure.

I'll bet it's like Xmas in October over on the UConn board.
