It's basically the same thing they've done to Bowden, but he decided to step down when it was announced. Friedgen, I think has an incredible track record, but has been on the decline, and the University program decided to "lessen his workload and duties". I'm sure if it wasn't for his name and his history with Maryland, he could have been (still be) axed come next season.

Come to think of it, isn't it the same thing that happened earlier this season to Washington Redskins' head coach, Jim Zorn? (in that he ceded, to put it lightly, coaching responsibilites to his supervisors/coordinators while he is still the 'face' of the staff; basically, becoming a figurehead playcaller.)
