Maryland is conducting a coaching search for its football program with a focus on 11 candidates who align with the vision of Jim Smith, according to a report by Michael Howes of the Baltimore Sun published on Yahoo Sports.

The search aims to identify a head coach who fits the strategic direction outlined by Smith, though specific details about the candidates or Smith's exact role were not disclosed in the initial report.

Maryland's football program, known as the Terrapins, competes in the Big Ten Conference. The coaching vacancy comes as the program seeks to build on recent seasons and establish consistent competitiveness.
