Maryland Minute - 12.06.10 - Is the Bowl Selection Process Fair?

Bowl selection process unfair to Terps - ACC Blog - ESPN
Was it unfair, in terms of how the team performed? Sure. Maryland is the 3rd or 4th best team in the ACC. But when NC State outdraws your best game of the season when they play East Carolina, you can't blame the bowls for doing what they did. When MD didn't sell out the FSU game, I think that was the beginning of the end of Maryland going to a good bowl, short of going to the ACC Title game. And I think it's going to take a trip to the ACC title game and maybe being ranked pre-season (which they should be...maybe 20-25 range?) to get the fans back in Byrd...

Recruiting Report: Terps lose out on Adjehi Baru - Matt Bracken - baltimoresun.com
Yeah, we all know we missed on Baru, but I linked to this for the comments some people have made. It has and always will amaze me how fast people forget what they have. Bashing Gary for missing on a guy who went to College of Charleston (who UNC and Va. Tech also missed on) is moronic.
