Reports from SI.com and ESPN.com have claimed that there was a high possibility that D.J Durkin who is the current Michigan coordinator would take up the role of the head coach of the Maryland football.

The 37 year old is well known for his coaching experience having taken up various roles with Urban Meyer and Harbaugh. Despite being a phenomenal coach, Durkin has been an outstanding talent spotter and has recruited several players who have seen their talents rise up and become the best of the best in the football league. Durkin was accorded with the honors of the best recruiter back in 2012. This time he was in Florida.

Gary Blackney who took coached Durkin for four years during their time at Bowling Green and later became the defensive coordinator at Maryland when the team was mentored by Ralph Friedgen claimed that the acquisition of Durkin by Maryland was exceptional. He continued to describe him as a young guy with a wonderful pedigree and has been involved in different coaching jobs which have gained him a lot of experience. He added that Durkin will have a strategy that would bring all the departures back to the system.

Durkin has a good record when it comes to defensive coordination and this has seen Michigan being ranked fourth national wide in total defense and has also seen it scoop the 11^th position in scoring defense. The team has gone on to keep three consecutive clean sheets in September including their 28-0 win over Maryland.

Before securing a job with the Wolverines, Durkin had spent five years in Florida in which he undertook the defensive coordinating role for two years. Expulsion of head coach Will Muschamp in January gave him an interim role as the head coach and went on to win the Birmingham Bowl. Before joining Florida, he was working under Harbaugh in Stanford and spent some time as the team’s defensive coordinator.

Durkin who started his coaching career in 2001 in with Atlanta Falcons is claimed to be the man who would open a new page for the Maryland team after the firing of Randy Edsall who had a poor record of 22-34.

Reports from the Spillemyndigheden the main betting regulatory body of Denmark have indicated that there has been a magical increase in the revenue emanating from online gaming market in the third quarter of 2015. This radical rise in the nation could set a good footprint for those other nations seeking to have regulated betting in their territories.

Denmark is renowned for its outstanding casinos such as Roxy Palace Casino, Maria and Tivoli. These and others have jointly brought an increased revenue totaling to DDK330 million (€44.2 million/$47.1 million). This is DDK65 million more than what was recorded in Q3 of 2014. However, the Q3 of 2015 has dropped slightly from DDK335 million recorded in Q2 of this year.

General betting income was recorded as DDK560 million in the Q3 of 2015 which represents a rise as compared to DDK470 of Q2 of 2015 and DDK495 recorded in the Q3 of 2014.

This was followed by an increase in the total gross gaming income to DDK890 million as compared to DDK760 million that was recorded in the Q3 of 2014. It also rose up from DDK805 million that was recorded in the Q2 of this year.

Nonetheless, a decrease in the total gross gaming income from the gaming machine as Q3 recorded DDK385 million which went down from DDK415 million that was recorded in Q2 of 2015. However, it was far much higher than the DDK370 million that was overseen in Q3 of 2014.

There was a record broken by the land-based casino incomes that shot from DDK80 million in Q3 of 2014 to record at DKK95 million in Q3 of 2015. This was the most successive increase ever experienced since 2012.

Spillemyndigheden claimed that the performance experienced in the Q3 of this year will play a major role as the firm eyes on a possible half a billion rise to the total gross. Currently, the total gross is at DDK8.4 billion without the Q4. Last year’s total gross was recorded at DDK7.8 billion.

At such a time, countries in need of initiating regulated gambling should keep an eye on the tremendous growth that Denmark is experience. Moreover, they should incorporate some strategies used by Danish to fulfill their dream.
