Maryland, New AD Kevin Anderson Go Out On a Limb With Randy Edsall
Filed under: Maryland, Coaching
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Kevin Anderson was hired as Maryland athletic director on Sept. 4. By Dec. 20, he was firing Ralph Friedgen as football coach, and exactly two weeks after that, he was introducing Randy Edsall as Friedgen’s replacement.
If they measured such things as public approval ratings on this job, Anderson’s likely has taken a hit in the last 121 days.
Anderson isn’t surprised. Nor is he terribly concerned. “Part of the job. Coming in here, I knew it was going to be part of the job, and that if I took this job and had a problem with people liking me or not liking me, I’ll fail,” he said Monday afternoon at the Maryland football team’s on-campus field house.
