Coaches called on the carpet
..."I think this summit has some merit," said Citadel coach Pat Dennis. "But I don't know that a three-hour meeting is going to make the difference in somebody cheating or not.

...As he scrutinized the tape of Saturday night's 35-10 blowout loss at Florida State -- a loss that leaves the Terps 0-2 headed into this week's home opener against the Citadel -- Maryland Coach Ralph Friedgen was trying to figure it all out.
