Testudo Times Roundtable

Week of 11/30

Q: Let's get the big one out of the way. Maryland is hiring Michigan defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin as its head football coach. What do you think of the hire?

Thomas: It's ambitious. Durkin is young and accomplished, and has the potential to quickly become a fantastic head coach. But he's a blank slate, and we don't know.

Carson: From everything I've heard, I think he will be a good coach for Maryland. Getting a guy like Richt would have been awesome but I don't know how realistic that was.
