So check out The Sun article on Adams. Particularly this part...

So Edsall hates blondes.....who knew? Good thing he wasn't coaching back when Boomer Esiason was a Terp.

Everybody knows blondes have more fun.... lol.

I'm starting to re-think my prediction on DOB. I think he stays. Why give up being a starting QB in the ACC for uncertainty somewhere else? It's not like he was in the doghouse either, he was just throwing a lot of picks.

Well, Jordan Rodgers is a junior, so I'm sure O'Brien would be welcomed as the next Vanderbilt QB. Then he'll be a starting quarterback in the SEC.

With a coach whose system he became the ACC ROY in. Still, there are reasons for him to stay at UM too....especially if he doesn't graduate next spring.

Then you've got DeShawn Dowdy, a DE who committed on Thanksgiving then de-committed yesterday. It's getting comical. Could Madaras or Brigham be next?

I've never seen the MD football program in this kind of disarray. Not after the Bias scandal, not after Ross, not even during Vandy or Duffner's years.

I'd have to agree. Never thought I'd long for the Duffner years but Edsall is alienating everyone.

I was a big Titus Till fan, too. The kind was a good player. Hard hitter who was far from the worst safety on the field for Maryland. Hendy played well when Till lost his starting job, but still. There was another safety I'd have played Till over instead.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      And the difference with Cowser and Holliday is the team around him. Right now, our lineup is deep and talented, which allows them to let Holliday struggle through without majorly affecting the outcomes of games. Plus there really isn’t an incumbent player pushing him for time. Hays was the entrenched starter last year when Cowser came up, so the only way he was going to play in a pennant race was if he hit as he has this year. The problem with Holliday is purely this: unrealistic expectations. Give him some time. We will reap the benefits of this patience later in the season. You add his bat to what we already have?!?! Watch out!

      This should be merged into the thread in the minor league forum.   https://forum.orioleshangout.com/topic/51777-seth-johnson-2024/#comment-3104271

      Hard to look at his start as “just a slump” when factoring in his second half of last year, too.

      Aren't the Tides struggling enough already?

      Not even a platinum glove is worth that kind of abysmal production at the plate. Elias should capitalize on Hays' option and send him to Norfolk to play every day. If there's an injury to one of the OF's on the major league roster or he gets into a groove at the plate, call him back up. Give Stowers an opportunity - even just as a sparingly-used 4th OF - to reward him for multiple seasons of good production in the minors.

      Is this a serious statement?  Did we find out if Cowser was “cut out for the majors” last season when he struggled? Did we find out about Grayson last season when he struggles so much that he had to be sent down? Just curious, how long have you watched baseball? I ask because I have read several of these hyperbolic reactions when the kid hasn’t even played a full week of games and the first thing that I a think is what is this poster’s frame of reference? Have they not watched various top players/prospect struggle when first coming to the show? I don’t mean to be insulting but it get’s a little exhausting reading these type of instantaneous indictments of a 20 year-old uber-talented kid who has not found his groove after 25 ABs.

      Cowser never had the chance to play every day. It wasn't a similar situation to Holliday's callup outside of poor initial results. Holliday is being given a long leash to struggle and try to figure things out. Cowser had no such opportunity last season. Elias and Hyde were too enamored with Aaron Hicks.
