Kevin Anderson trying to keep Maryland out of Miami's predicament

At some juncture in the Byrd Stadium press box Monday night, Kevin Anderson will shake hands with his counterpart, current Miami Athletic Director Shawn Eichorst, and think, understandably, I am so glad I’m not you right now .

Miami meets Maryland in College Park sans eight Hurricane players, of course. They were suspended pending further investigation into their relationship with a white collar felon/booster who claims he paid or gave illegal benefits worth about $2 million to players and coaches between 2002 and 2010.

I was critical of both Anderson several times in its first year on the job. Even he would admit he did not deal with all the aplomb he has inherited from great old office Debbie Yow and, uh, spending - including an agreement-in-waiting coach Anderson n ' has ever loved.

Between Ralph Friedgen’s unseemly exit and the search for Gary Williams’s successor, Anderson has gotten more grief about whom he didn’t hire to coach football and men’s basketball at Maryland than deserved praise for plucking Randy Edsall out of Connecticut and Mark Turgeon out of Texas A&M.
