When you meet James Franklin, you know you are meeting one of the most confident, talented, self assured football men around. Remember Ralph was ecstatic when he returned. Now with the football in waiting issue no one knows how to react. Ralph was just voted ACC Coach of the Year (He certainly received my vote) He seems to be demanding a new extended contract. Yet do we really want to see James leave. Kevin Anderson has his hands full. I … Read More »
I guess at some point we have to move on as the Terps begin to get ready for the Military Bowl Dec 29 at 2:30 PM. I am anxious to see our gunslinger Danny O’Brien take apart the East Carolina defense.
You have to listen to this piece of garbage from Tom O’Brien. He clearly states that Maryland has no fans and that NC State was clearly the 3rd best team in the conference. O’Brien must not have been at the shellacking his defense took at the hands of Danny O’Brien and Torrey Smith. When everything was on the line for the Wolfpack, Ralph embarassed him.
If and when the final decision is made sending maryland to the Military Bowl on Sunday night, look for an explosion of anti ACC sentiments coming from many Terrapin fans. I plan on expounding about this on The Sports Maven this morning.
What a turnaround for Ralph. !!!!!!! Danny OBrien was selected as Rookie Offensive player of the year and overall Rookie of the Year.
One day after six Terps earned all-league honors and three were named players of the week, Ralph Friedgen was voted ACC Coach of the Year and quarterback Danny O’Brien was tabbed the conference’s top overall and offensive rookie by the Atlantic Coast Sports Media Association (ACSMA).
Friedgen, who led the Terps to a six-game turnaround … Read More »

POST GAME REPORT
Today Danny O’Brien came of age and we might have lost Torrey Smith next year. Danny threw for 417 yards including 4 TDS to Torrey Smith. Torrey had 14 catches for 224 yards. Let’s give some serious credit to Coach Friedgen who really had his troops ready for victory today. the Terps came out flat and ended tenuous but in between they were as good or … Read More »
Here is what could be at stake for the Terrapins Saturday afternoon:
8-4 just sounds light years better then 7-5. Could the Music City Bowl or the Chick-Fil-A Bowl be on the line with a Terrapin victory?
Finally on National TV on the deuce let the nation and recruits continue to watch a feisty, gutsy team continue to battle against Ryssell Wilson.
The Pack is susceptible to deep passes as they continuaaly sell out to the blitz—Torrey put a hurting … Read More »
By the way game time is 3:30 PM on ESPN2.. I hope the answer is yes to the headline question. Beating NC State will be no picnic but the motivation is there. Certainly a bowl in Nashville against say the Volunteers would represent an excellent season.
Look for Danny OBrien to have a big game Saturday. Perhaps with the pressure of a huge game , #5might have been under wraps. Not next Saturday there is absolutely nothing to lose. A … Read More »
