they were smart to get out when they did.

Lots of folks were laughing at the move when they did it.

They are still not very good in football. Their basketball program has gone down and even their once powerful men’s soccer program is not anywhere near what it used to be. Didn’t even make the tourney this year

My thought exactly. How are they better off?***

True, but hopefully the MD athletic department is now solvent.

They settled with the ACC for like 31 million. What a bargain that turned out to be. Smart as hell to get out when they did.

Nobody really pays attention to a prison, unless it’s on fire.

Good advice that should have been heeded during the last ACC GOR negotiations.

Yet all that extra money has not helped their athletic program achieve more and arguably less since leaving

Who put the "L" in BrowneLL


yep. They've gotten worse in men's basketball


Nov 18, 2023, 1:57 PM

their men's soccer program used to be elite in the ACC and now they aren't even making the tournament.

I guess their women's bball is still good but not any better than before
