A New Terp in Charge

Here is an article about new coach Mark Turgeon by Tracee Hamilton.  What’s your opinion of the changing of the guard?  Share it with us!

 

Randy Edsall’s introductory news conference at Maryland was more of a wake than a surprise party. All that was missing that January day were dirges and the funeral meats. Edsall had come from Connecticut to replace a football coach who was also a Maryland alum, and there were fans — even some in the room that day — who felt Ralph Friedgen shouldn’t be leaving, or that at least his replacement should be more impressive.

Mark Turgeon’s news conference Wednesday could have gone the same way. He came from Texas A&M to replace a basketball coach who was also a Maryland alum, and some fans felt it wasn’t time for Gary Williams to leave, either (although Williams left on his own terms). And there are fans who feel, that despite Turgeon’s rather impressive credentials, he isn’t good enough for Maryland.

Those fans are wrong.
