Gary's mediocrity was great for Georgetown. Time to gear up for a real turf war (provided they make a good hire).

Unlikely to get a good hire at this stage in year...unless they pony up. Which is certainly possible given the backlash of fanbase if you go for a blah hire.

Wait...so does this mean the University of Maryland might actually graduate a men's basketball player?

I really, really, hope they make a bad hire. Not Anthony Grant, not Shaka Smart and definitely not Brad Stevens. Will be interesting to see how much cache their program has and who is interested.

Their message board is going to be really interesting between now and the time they make a hire. Expect a mix of delusion, neurosis, paranoia, agony, exuberance, and more. Should be a fun read: maryland.247sports.com/Board/Maryland-Terrapins-Message-Board-Forum-53Funny to see the Mason, GW and UMCP jobs all come open within like a month. III is like the last man standing.

Hopefully Nick Faust asks for his release. Faust would be worth burning another one of this year's schollies. Hoping they don't get Stevens (fat chance) or Miller. Hasn't Esh's name been floated around for local positions lately?

Took all of a minute before they started clamoring for Brad Stevens. Not happening.

This is ultimately bad for us. His lackadaisical recruiting played to our advantage (See Chris and Austin's comments on the radio the other day).
My early front runner: Shaka Smart

Kevin Anderson: "I'm interested in the team playing Georgetown. Your thoughts?" Gary Williams: "Not as long as I'm coach here!" Kevin Anderson: "Sorry you feel that way. Best wishes on your retirement."
But seriously, May is an odd time to call it quits. I hope it's not health related, but it's a tough time to begin a search amidst recruiting season.

Very surprised that Gary is calling it quits. would not be shocked if he surfaces somewhere else in a year or two if this isnot health induced.

Wonder if Debbie Yow will try to sabotage their search.

Kevin Anderson: "I'm interested in the team playing Georgetown. Your thoughts?" Gary Williams: "Not as long as I'm coach here!" Kevin Anderson: "Sorry you feel that way. Best wishes on your retirement." Beat me to it. A series with UMCP just moved closer to reality, IMO.

Wonder if Debbie Yow will try to sabotage their search. Best possible thing would be for this search to look exactly like that one did.

Look for burning coaches in College Park tonight.
BTW, I saw former MD football coach, Ralph Friedgen, at Mass here in SC three weeks in a row but not lately.
