Maryland has fired former offensive coordinator and Penn State wide receivers coach Josh Gattis, according to Carter Bahns of 247 Sports. Gattis served two years as the Terrapins OC and finished on five-game losing streak, not scoring over 20 points in the final four games.
As expected, Maryland and Mike Locksley are parting with offensive coordinator Josh Gattis after two years. Been a foregone conclusion since Locksley took over playcalling near midseason.
