No matter the result of Saturday’s season finale against Boston College (the Terps lost 19-17), the question for postgame availability was obvious.
Will Ralph Friedgen remain the coach of this team next season?
It’s quite possible nobody knows the answer, not even AD Debbie Yow or other top-level administrators charged with making the final call. Friedgen will meet with Yow first. He said he wants to discuss some ideas he has for improvement “both from an offensive and defensive standpoint.”
It’s hard to predict if that means assistant coaching changes, a different offensive philosophy, both or neither.
Friedgen said he wants to be here next season, and as has often been the case during this difficult year, he got emotional. For evidence of that, check out the video below:
