This is an interesting list of quotes from ACC football quotes from the ACC Kickoff meetings.
Check how many coaches make negative comments about expansion. A little late now, boys.
The coach that made the strangest comments is Ralph Friedgen. He indirectly (directly?) blamed Myles Brand for losing players to other schools for academic reasons. Hey Fridge, the NCAA didn’t keep them out of Maryland, your admissions department did! I liked this quote too, “If I’m graduating them, what difference does it make if he made a ‘D’ in Chemistry.” There’s the attitude coach! Who cares if they actually learn anything – just pass them along. A diploma’s a diploma, right?
