Baltimore Sun: Friedgen "Won't Coach Team" in 2011

Forget that Ralph Friedgen won ACC Coach of the Year this year. Even that didn't save him from getting canned. OC James Franklin's leaving to coach Vandy, rather than the Terps' record in 2010, was ultimately the final nail in the coffin. Maryland had no future with Friedgen planning to leave after 2011. Now with the succession plan they thought they had in ruins, AD Kevin Anderson decided to pull the trigger.

Rumor is Mike Leach is taking over as the head coach at Maryland.

Is there any truth to this?

I know Orangebloods is saying that

But consider the source-Orangebloods also said Texas would go to the PAC-10.

The Baltimore Sun is saying Leach hasn’t even been contacted yet, as per his agent.

Apparently Leach is already recruiting

Or at least calling players and talking about the Maryland job. This is the Serra QB in question, but one has to wonder why the hell Leach would call this kid of all people.

I imagine that it if is not going to be Mike Leach, they wouldn’t have been in such a hurry to shove Friedgen off the plank, as it were.
