Talk about going from the penthouse to the outhouse. The Washington Post
writer doesn't pull any punches regarding Edsall's dream job. After Randy coached
his team from a 41-14 lead to a 56-41 loss in his season finale I guess they've
seen enough of his act in Maryland. Here are some classics from the article :
Randy Edsall should be fired - today.
(AD) Anderson might not deserve full blame for the Edsall hire because many believe he was ordered
not to hire former Texas Tech Coach Mike Leach, who certainly would not have gone 2-10 and could
not possibly have offended as many people along the way as Edsall has.
Here’s the real reason Edsall should be fired: He doesn’t get it.
He didn’t get it a year ago, when he didn’t have the class to tell his Connecticut players in person
that he was leaving. He didn’t get it when he started spouting off about rules as if he had invented
the idea of discipline.
Even as the losses have piled up, Edsall still hasn’t gotten it. After the awful 38-7 loss to Temple,
he declared that Maryland was rebuilding.
After a season that was a failure in every possible way, Edsall still insisted his way was right.
Saturday, when he talked about re-evaluating, Edsall brought up things such as making offseason
workouts more competitive.
Oh, please.
How about re-evaluating yourself? Does a career record of 76-80 make you exempt from that?
(For the record, Leach was 84-43 in a much tougher league.) Does the fact that your failure
ruined the last college football memories of your senior class - something Edsall never brings
up - bother you at all?
No. Nothing bothers Edsall. He’s never wrong. He coached good; his players played bad. And
wore their caps backward too often. The media was unfair. And he’s just like Bob Kraft and
the Patriots.This post was edited on 11/27 3:05 PM by the Blades

He's already earned the nickname "Rangoon" on the MD boards. They seem to really hate him with a passion, and yesterday's debacle was the capper. How do you lead a game 41-14 with 22 minutes left and lose by 15?
