    UConn football coach Randy Edsall taking off for Maryland?
    Connecticut Coach Randy Edsall is expected to become Maryland's next football coach, according to a source with direct knowledge of the Terrapins coaching search. The school will call a press conference to announce the hire Monday, barring any unforeseen developments.

              Terrible hire. Maryland thinks this guy will take them big time and sell seats? His offensive teams have been an embarrassment. If he wasn't coaching against Stewart and Wannstadt, he would never have won the Big East.

              Maryland probably didn't want to pay Leach what he asked for.

                Like the hire by Maryland, hate the decision to accept by Edsall. He has a better chance of competing in BCS games with UConn than he does with Maryland. Maryland is unable to recruit with in the Mid-Atlantic, being so close to the SEC and having to battle VaTech in their region. The talent in the Northeast isn't as good as the south/mid-atlantic...but there is far less competition.

                  Agree that Edsall was in a better position to win at UCONN, even with the addition of TCU. Friedgen was making 1.75M per, so it looks like Edsall will get a nice bump in salary.

                      Other than money, there cant be any incentive to leave Uconn for Maryland.

                        Seems like a lateral move at best.

                                we'll never see another Paterno . Edsal brought this program from div II in about 10 years and i was hoping he would continue there.

                                  TCU coming to the Big East to take a shit on anyone's chances of getting that automatic BCS bid.

                                    Don't really care about the move, but sounds like he was a coward in leaving ... didn't tell anyone from UConn what he was doing. No guts.

                                              sideways move really. Look at BC, they'd of made several BCS games already if they'd stayed in the Big east, instead they chose ACC. Good point on TCU though, no one else is going to sniff the BCS with them in the league.

                                                    Great point Maryland should have paid Leach, Randy Edsall was great at a school where football is in the background but Leach would have taken a good Maryland football team to the next level and thank god the big east got TCU they will make the big east so much better, because no one wants to see a BCS bowl game 28 pt blow out against a 5 loss team, IMO.
