Texas A&M coach Mark Turgeon accepts contract offer from Maryland

Mark Turgeon ultimately weighed a golden opportunity to be at a tradition-rich basketball school in the ACC against continuing where he was comfortable at an emerging program deep in Texas.

He spent 24 hours on the decision, wrestled with it, and ulitmately chose to make his most significant career move by deciding to leave Texas A&M on Monday and accept Maryland's offer to replace recently-retired and likely Hall of Fame coach Gary Williams.

"It wasn't easy," Turgeon told ESPN.com a few minutes after holding a tear-filled meeting with his Aggies players in College Station. "But I just felt like it was a great opportunity. Maryland has a tremendous amount of tradition, is in a great area for players, and it's in a great league with a lot of tradition. I know you can be successful there if you work hard and get lucky."

A news conference to introduce Turgeon is set for Wednesday at noon in College Park.

So there's that. But he was I think Marylands FIFTH CHOICE for the job. I heard that Miller was interested until he actually talked to Marylands idiot AD. That would NOT surprise me.
