Let the Maryland transfer tally begin

Yeah, before you say it, we know. Maryland plays football in the ACC which is essentially like talking about Conference USA football.

But this is somewhat significant.

The tally for defections out of fairly new Maryland coach Randy Edsall's program now stands at 24 since the beginning of last year. 12 of whom bailed after this past season.

The latest casualties...former starting QB Danny O'Brien, Tackle Max Garcia and LB Mario Rowson. And while O'Brien didn't end the year as the starting QB in 2011, he began it there.

The rumors of unhappiness have been flowing non-stop from the Maryland campus and it is starting to all point in the same direction. The Terp alumni have made no secret of their desire to achieve football prominence, something under former coach Ralph Friedgen they were close to achieving.

But the defections don't look good.

According to CFT, O'Brien may end up with his former coordinator, James Franklin, who is now in charge at Vandy...and he'll have 2-years of eligibility left that he can use beginning tomorrow.

The others, we don't know.

Keep your eye out on Maryland, its our position that if the Terps don't have a banner year in 2012, they'll be one of the earlier riders to take a seat on next years Coaching Carousel.
