plenzmd1 Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 So met Bobby Ross last night at the Richmond game. Was joking he should’ve stayed on with Marv, maybe we would have won a Super Bowl with him! I had no idea he was boys with Marv and Marv only hired him so he could get around the ACC rule that a coach could not move to another team in conference. Seems he had the Ga. Tech job lined up , but as he had resigned from Maryland he had to have a job in between... enter his good buddy Marv. Anyways, for the old guys thought I would bring up and old memory. 1 1

Paulmac Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 Love to hear these type of stories..Bobby Ross was innovative back in the day
BillsVet Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 Always loved that he went back to Army as their coach for his last coaching job.

Didn't know the angle to that story. Was bummed at first at the quick turnaround, now understand why it happened

Marv's Neighbor Posted February 8, 2018 Posted February 8, 2018 From one "old timer" to another, good to see he's still on the right side of the grass.
