Ralph Friedgen will make the return to his old stomping grounds at the Terps’ game against Penn State on Sept. 27, head coach Mike Locksley announced at his press conference Tuesday.
Friedgen will serve as honorary captain and be recognized on the field following the first half of the contest.
“I can’t tell you the impact that Ralph has had on the Maryland football community as well as college football,” Locksley said. “He’s a guy that I have the utmost respect for, that I’ve always looked up to as a guy that loves and has passion for this place like I do.
