great hire by Maryland

Any time you get a chance to hire a coach with a 3-31 career record, a fight with an assistant coach that got him suspended, and a sex discrimination lawsuit on his record, you have to take it

Urban is still only 54 years old. He could pop up again at USC, Texas, or Alabama in a few years.

I'm really confused by this one. Only thing I can think is he didn't want to go to the nfl. Helton is a dead man walking, so he'll probably be looking for a job in a year. If the USC offense stinks the shine is going to come off. Air raid takes a year or two to get going, not sure he'll have time.

fair point(s) on the second two things, but his w/l record is irrelevant. He took a terrible job on sanctions. He can recruit the DC/MD/VA area literally better than anyone. He got Stefon Diggs (the #1 WR recruit in the country) to go to MD. He got Vernon Davis, Shawn Merriman etc (basically the list of best Maryland players the last 15 years to go to Maryland.) Oh and Dwayne Haskins would be at Maryland right now if he didn't get let go when MD fired Edsall. Can he coach? thats TBD but he will get kids to go there.

I could be Bama's OC next year and Bama would still win it all.

Given that Army-Navy is on my mind and that Paul Johnson just retired, it has me wondering: Will we ever see the Triple Option in the Power 5 ever again? Seems like it would be a good fit for P5 basement dwellers (Rutgers, Vanderbilt etc). At least have an offense you force your opponents to prepare for, and run a scheme commensurate with the type of talent you can pull in.

LOL.

It wasn't some sort of dire circumstances that lead to his disaster. He was just an absolutely terrible coach at New Mexico. Like the epitome of terrible. In a weak-ass conference his teams were consistently blown out by everyone. His only two wins (in back-to-back 1-11 seasons plus an 0-4 start before getting ****canned) came in games where they lucked into huge turnover margins and he only had a handful of games that were even close--one of them being a close loss to an FCS school. Those penalties amounted to 5 fewer scholarships total on his freshman and sophomore classes; in other words pretty much irrelevant for those years. They just looked totally unprepared week after week. Even a moron came in after him and won 7 games in 2 years with those sanctioned upper classes.

It wasn't even a terrible job *before* he took it. They had just had their first losing season since 2000, ffs.

I think you're being pretty silly to brush that off. The best you can say about it is, "He learned everything NOT to do--and I DO mean EVERYTHING.", LOL. It's funny because, personally, I would have thought he'd have picked up a thing or two just walking around let alone being an assistant coach.

Auburn isn’t letting Malzahn offer assistants multi-year contracts which is preventing them from getting Freeze

Yeh that’s coming from the same guy who said Bob Stoops was coming to auburn so take all that with a huge grain of salt. He’s a stir the pot kinda guy so he’s probably full of ****.

Why would Malzahn offer recruits multi-year schollies with that ****.

Why would it matter anyway? Freeze would be here for one or two years and then leave to be a head coach again somewhere. Freeze isn’t a long term option for anyone so lol at this anyway

one thing about running the triple option at a power 5 school is you're essentially signing up to have mediocre offensive talent year after year. how can a program known for running the triple option hope to ever land an elite QB or WR recruit? if i'm a somewhat skilled high school o-lineman that has any dream of playing in the NFL why would i choose a school that won't let me demonstrate or develop my ability to pass block?

i understand the triple option is a wrinkle that offers the service academies an opportunity to compete against more talented players due to lack of size and skill, but Stanford has found a way to reasonably succeed at football with very high academic standards and still recruit a level of talent that is able to finish second in the Heisman voting year after year.
