ACC Best and James Franklin....

Our favorite ESPN Analysts put together a All-BCS Era ACC Team, and a few Terps made the list. http://espn.go.com/blog/acc/post/_/id/66055/accs-all-bcs-team TE: Vernon Davis, Maryland: Davis was a consensus All-American in 2005, first-team all-ACC selection, and finalist for the Mackey Award, given to the nation’s top tight end. He started every game, leading the team with 51 receptions and the conference with 871 receiving yards (17.1 average). He was also one of the top blockers at his position. LB -- E.J. Henderson, Maryland: Henderson was an All-American in 2001 and 2002, setting a single-season school record with 26 tackles for loss in 2001, winning the ACC Player of the Year honor that season. He was selected ACC Defensive Player of the Year in 2002 and also won the Bednarik and Butkus awards. Also Franklin was asked about Maryland in an interview: http://espn.go.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/93782/qa-penn-states-james-franklin-part-ii You'll also be in the same division now, and competing right away on the recruiting trail, against Maryland. You were nearly the head coach there. What are your thoughts about that? JF: I had a great experience at the University of Maryland. I really did. I enjoyed my time there, and we won a bunch of games for Ralph Friedgen. I worked for Debbie Yow, the great athletic director there. The fans, the boosters, the high school coaches there were awesome. So I had a great experience at the University of Maryland and am forever grateful for my time there.
