This is not the way anyone wanted Ralph’s career to end at College Park. But the choice came down to a lame duck year, a new 4 or 5 year contract or 100% buyout of his remaining year. Ralph will receive $2 Million dollars for not coaching next year. To guess what could have happened is pure conjecture but perhaps the University tried to cut a deal and Ralph and his lawyers said no deal.Kevin Anderson was obviously unwilling to … Read More »
No more speculation!! As things officially unfold I will report them. As of this second Ralph is still the Coach, and Leach has not signed. So be it. Let’s take a look at Ralph’s tenure at Maryland.
Friedgen has a 74-50 record in nine-plus years, including the only three straight 10-win seasons in school history (10-2 in 2001, 11-3 in 2002 and 10-3 in 2003). His 74 overall victories rank 10th on the ACC’s all-time list .

When Andray Blatche fouled Chris Bosh for 3 shots with seconds left –is that Flip’s fault? Does the team ever discuss strategy?
Why in the world was Gino on the attack? His team won its 88th in a row tying UCLA’s record and all he wanted to do was scream about those who don’t like Women’s Basketball.
I hope no one is shocked. The Saints can pull their cheap shot bully tactics on many teams and get away with it, but not in Baltimore. The Ravens ran the ball down the Saints throats. Some observations of the victory that moves the Ravens to 10-4:
Is our punter Koch a magician. Game after game, he pins the opponents concistently inside the 10.

We can’t criticize the play calling today. 4th … Read More »

Mike Leach is one of the great offensive minds of the past decade as proven by his tremendous record for Texas Tech in the Big 12. Check out a brief bio on Mike Leach. Leach was able to develop mediocre talented QBs into phenomenal … Read More »
Minutes after winning the Super Bowl, Ozzie Newsome asked Brian Billick why he waited a year before taking the trophy. Billick’s answer–“Thats one more year I will have here before they toss me out.” Ten years seems to be the max number these days before a coach wears out his welcome. Let me get several things off my chest.
Ralph did a tremendous job turning the program back around this year. So much so, he easily earned my vote as … Read More »
When the New England Patriots sent Randy Moss packing , it was simply a case of addition by subtraction. Same story here. For the last 3 years Gilbert was a curse to the Wizards but his contract was so stron, nothing could be done to extricate him. Not anymore, Good luck Stan Van Gundy . Maybe you are a miracle worker.
By the way, only the Wizards could have found a way to lose to Miami last night–up by 5 … Read More »
If, and it seems almost certain, that Mike Leach becomes the new head coach of the Terrapins, AD Kevin Anderson will have completed a series of steps designed to do 2 things–fill the many empty seats at Byrd and bring Terrapin football back to national prominence. The Coach in waiting theory might have been a good idea at first but recently it has wrecked havoc with the program. By James leaving for Vanderbilt and Ralph being bought out of his … Read More »
