COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) -Maryland football coach Ralph Friedgen will return for the 2010 season.
Friedgen’s job status appeared shaky after the Terrapins lost a school-record 10 games this season. But after meeting for two consecutive days with athletic director Debbie Yow, he has been given the go-ahead to make plans for a 10th season as head coach at his alma mater.
Yow made the announcement Tuesday, saying that Friedgen “continues to have my full support.”
The 62-year-old Friedgen has two years left on a contract that pays him $2 million annually. He is 66-46 at Maryland and has gone to six bowl games, but the Terrapins have endured four losing seasons over the past six years.
