Maryland football coach Ralph Friedgen has shown in recent months that he isn't as intractable as some believe. Friedgen brought in a new offensive coordinator, James Franklin, named him assistant head coach and let him overhaul the offense. Now, entering his eighth season at Maryland, Friedgen seems willing to alter his philosophy when it comes to his quarterbacks. With incumbent Chris Turner unable to separate himself from Jordan Steffy or Josh Portis, Friedgen said this week that he might consider using two - or even three - quarterbacks this season.

3 QBs ... which means you have no QBs ...

.......and your too fat to walk around the playing field. Fine example for your players.

DEVO, throw all the mud you want at coach Ralph, but he's been the best thing to happen to Maryland football in 20 years. Thanks to Ralph, MD has finally been able to beat schools like FLORIDA STATE.

Yeah, congrats to Ralphie for beating FSU, but let me be the first to tell you, that party is OVER.

Is Ralph Friedgen to fat to walk now? Better bulk up Weis, your getting some competition.

August 16, 2008  02:26 PM ET

He is so fat I bet he can't wipe him-self!

August 16, 2008  04:46 PM ET

Wow, that was creative...

August 16, 2008  05:09 PM ET

He and Mark Mangino should become sumo wrestlers. There way too fat

August 16, 2008  06:51 PM ET

the three of them (Weis, Friedgen, Mangioni) are in a league of there own

Is it just me or does it seem like Steffy's been at Maryland for the last 10 years?

And playing 3 qb's does mean that none of them are much better than the others. Still, Ralph(perfect name for him too) has been good for Terp football.

Whose invitation for Thanksgiving dinner would you accept? Ralph Friedgen's or Charlie Weis'?

August 18, 2008  06:37 PM ET

I'd go with Freidgen's invite - he's from the South, and they fry their turkeys there.

Man, look at that picture. It's like a beached whale, for crying out loud.

But seriously, playing more than one QB is not a good idea. They frequently try to outshine each other, making dangerous choices.

I'm sure all the folks making comments all have flat, washboard abs.
