Maryland sends Friedgen packing
Ralph Friedgen, the Atlantic Coast Conference coach of the year, was fired by Maryland yesterday, effective after the Military Bowl Dec. 29. Friedgen received $2 million to cover the final year of his contract in 2011. Athletic director Kevin Anderson is forming a search committee to find Friedgen’s replacement, and acknowledged that former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach is on his preliminary list. “Right now there is no leading candidate,’’ he said, adding that no one had been contacted. But Anderson intends to have the position filled by Jan. 4. During his 10 years at his alma mater, Friedgen went 74-50. After the Terrapins slipped to 2-10 last year, Friedgen, 63, guided the team to an 8-4 record and earned his seventh postseason appearance. 


Well at least the old coach now has plenty of time to attend to his favorite hobbies, which would appear to be drinkin' kegs and eatin' Volkswagens.  He's so fat his cereal comes with a lifeguard.  He's so fat he can't fit in a chat room.  Bang.  I'll be here all week....
