UMd. Fires Head Football Coach Randy Edsall

Luckily for Maryland through all of this turmoil, four star quarterback recruit Dwayne Haskins has stood by his verbal commitment to the university. If this was the end, he was going out on his terms.

He had praised his players for handling the distractions about the coach’s job status well and competing into the second half with top-ranked Ohio State before ultimately falling 49-28 in another lopsided conference loss. It doesn’t matter if the team the Buckeyes are playing is good or bad.

Edsall, who was asked about why he was shaking hands with all his players before the game, launched into a tirade at the reporter. Maryland also was invited to its second straight bowl game. Maryland is coming off losses to West Virginia and Michigan and has fallen t- 2-3 on the year, and now the Terps look to turn things around.

“It’s a tremendous challenge”, Edsall said, “but a great opportunity as well”.

“Having spent more than a decade with the Maryland football program over the course of his career, I feel Mike is best suited to effectively guide our program through the remainder of the 2015 season”, Anderson said. The 35th, Mike Locksley, will be the first black head football coach in the university’s long history. “Do my job the way I’ve been doing it”.

Maryland has a bye this week and faces Penn State on October 24.

Today’s Ohio State Buckeyes vs Maryland Terrapins Big Ten college football game has a start time schedule of noon eastern time and airs on TV channel BTN, the Big Ten Network.

Hills rushed for two touchdowns and threw for another one, a 52-yard pass to D.J. Moore in the first quarter.

At Sunday’s news conference, Locksley made his first significant decision as coach by confirming that redshirt junior Perry Hills would be his starting quarterback. In 2006, the Meyer-led Florida Gators won a national championship — Ohio State fans will remember it well, as it ended with a 41-14 shellacking of the Buckeyes — using two quarterbacks.

Hills said he and his teammates were able to pull together despite the commotion around them.

“The defense directs where the ball goes”, Meyer said. “It seems like every time somebody does something, we come back with answers”.

Cardale Jones has been struggling for the Buckeyes as well and is hoping to turn his season around with a big performance this week. The results were startling: Ohio State scored a touchdown on all six trips inside the Terrapins 20-yard line. “It was all for the benefit of the team”, Jones said. I saw that we gave up quite a few rushing yards and the quarterback probably had the majority of them.

The school also announced that assistant head coach/outside linebackers coach Lyndon Johnson has been “relieved of his coaching duties”. Jones threw a 19-yard TD pass to Braxton Miller in the first half and connected on a 48-yarder to Jalin Marshall in the third, giving Ohio State a 28-21 lead. Maryland ranks 45th in average 247Sports recruiting ranking over the last five years, ahead of Iowa, Indiana, Northwestern, Illinois, Minnesota and Purdue in the Big Ten.

“I can’t worry about that”, Jefferson said. I see exceptional athletes at the offensive skill positions, exceptional athletes on the defense.
