Maryland hired Mike Locksley as its head football coach on Dec. 4, and over a month later, his double duty between this gig and Alabama’s offensive coordinator job is officially over.

As of this update on Jan. 9, Maryland has reportedly made four hires. It has officially announced zero, although three are definitely employed at the university right now.
