With the Maryland football program constantly conducting their head coaching search, we decided to have an open live thread. This will be updated daily:
The Terrapins are only two days removed from a thrilling 46-41 comeback victory over Rutgers to close out the 2015 season.
On Monday afternoon, it was learned that interim coach Mike Locksley was interviewing for the head coaching job. This was just hours after it was reported that San Diego Chargers offensive coordinator Frank Reich interviewed with Maryland this past weekend.
Several other coaches have been linked to the Maryland job, including Michigan defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin, Mississippi coach Dan Mullen, Toronto Argonauts (CFL) coach Scott Milanovich, and now former Georgia coach Mark Richt.
It appears as though Maryland is leaving no stone unturned. The school is looking at several high-profile coaches and the interview process is definitely in full swing.
