Not to be lost in the excitement of yesterday’s Humanitarian Bowl Victory the Men’s Basketball Team improved to 10-2 by knocking off Elon 76-50.  Elon came out with a little spark and built a slim lead early, but it wasn’t long before the Terps took over for good.  The Terps took a 36-23 lead going [...]

You knew that headline was coming.  Da’Rel Scott wins the Humanitarian Bowl MVP.  But before we carry him off on our virtual shoulders let’s look at a few things.  First of all, the half time score was 28-14, so while Scott was on the bench the Terps built a 14 point lead, then Scott enters the [...]

Maryland wins a roller coaster match up to finish the season at 8-5.  Right before the game Patrick Stevens reported on his post that 7 players would not be starting the game because of curfew violations.  Da’rell Scott was one of them.  That may have turned out to be a blessing in disguise, but more on [...]

Yeah it’s finally here, 4:30 pm today our Terps take on the Wolfpack of Nevada in the Humanitarian Bowl, but then again I think everyone who would be interested in reading a Terps sports blog probably already knows that. But what I want to talk about is what a great feeling it is to sit [...]

Will Yeatman, a tight end, and attack man for lacrosse, will enroll at Maryland after getting his release from Notre Dame.  Yeatman was suspended from the football team after being arrested for under age drinking, giving false information, and resisting arrest.  Last year he missed the lacrosse season after being arrested for “operating under the [...]

The big day is upon us.  We get to see the Terps play on the blue turf.  It is hard to believe how quickly this time of year goes by, and how slow the time between this game and the 2009 season opener will take to get here.  That being said, this is the last time [...]

No that isn’t my predicition for the final score for tomorrow, unless of course the final score is close to that, in which case you’d better believe I’m going to come back in here and edit this first paragraph, those numbers up above represent the High and Low temperature for Boise on Tuesday December 30th.  [...]

With the Humanitarian Bowl and Basketball game against Elon coming up fast on Tuesday, I figured I better get this out there so you know a little about Elon before I run out of time.  I do remember this about Elon.  Way back when I was in 11th grade, maybe even 10th, Elon was one [...]

Maryland continued its winning ways against over matched Bryant University Saturday at Comcast Center.  I have to admit I am writing this after listening to the game on XM.  I forgot it was available on ACC Select, but I had some other things going on at the same time anyway.  The Terps improve to 9-2 [...]

Roll Call
OK, show of hands.  Who else is pleasantly surprised by the Basketball Team this year?  Yeah me to.  Granted they haven’t lit the world on fire or anything, but they have played pretty well.  They are 8-2 with the only losses being against top ranked teams (the fact that one of those teams was [...]
