Randy Edsall: Delusional Coach Denies Interest in Jaguars Job
Maryland coach Randy Edsall is a fool if he thought any NFL team was going to come knocking on his door. However, his recent comments point to the fact that he thought the Jacksonville Jaguars would.
Edsall spoke to the Washington Post's Jason Reid and was quoted in an article by Eric Prisbell of the Washington Post:
"The only job that I am worried about, and the job that I have got all my heart and soul and attention on, is Maryland. We are going to do the things necessary to make sure that this program goes where we want it to go.
"
In fairness to Edsall, his statement came on the heels of this tweet by San Francisco radio talk show host Dave Razzano.
NFL Won't Come Knocking
Edsall is having a season at Maryland that typically finds coaches clinging to their current job, not standing in line for a promotion.
In his first season at Maryland, Edsall led the Terrapins to a 2-10 record, and the season disintegrated as it progressed.
The Terrapins began the season 2-2. They then lost their last eight games. Their last seven losses were of the double-digit variety.
Compounding Edsall's failure is the fact that Maryland was 9-4 last season and ended that campaign with a 51-20 victory in the Military Bowl. What also needs to be noted is the fact that 20 players have left the Terrapins program since Edsall took over.
Edsall Has Work to Do
The Maryland coach is right to state that his focus is on Maryland. It needs to be. This program has quickly fallen apart under his care.
He could be fired today, and the Terrapin fanbase would largely support the move. He needs to get things turned around quickly, or he will be campaigning for any job he can get and not alerting the public that he is not interested in an NFL job.
