Thankfully I didn’t draw the straw to write the post game report.  It would have been a huge rambling, unorganized, and hard to read piece.  That being said it is over 12 hours later, and I am not sure this will be any better.  I am still on cloud 9.  So far I have watched [...]

Wow, we have been saying for the last month that the Terps need to pull out a win against one of the conference elite.  But everytime they have battled the best, we haven’t been coming up just short, we’ve been run out of buildings, so I think I probably speak for a lot of fans [...]

It seemed like long ago that Steve Blake was helping lead the Maryland Terrapins to the 2002 NCAA Championship (I mean LLLOOOONNNNGGG), and though Juan Dixon will always be remembered as the heart and soul of that team, many of us personally thought that when it came to the NBA Blake had the brighter future.  [...]

The Terps have been outside the NCAA Bubble looking in not to long ago (in fact it seems like part of the change in seasons, right between winter and spring).  Then all of the sudden they got that one marquee win against Duke at Home back in the 06-07 season.  The next thing you know [...]

In a trend that had become all to familiar, the Terps were run out of an opposing teams gym.  Maryland had chances in the first half, but started out with a 6-22 shooting performance and eventually finished 8-25 in the first half.  Despite the poor shooting, and a costly turnover at the end of the [...]

Well if there is any good news, it is the Turtledroppings.com is going to have the scoop on writing about this game.  I’m pretty sure most legitimate news outlets are going to wait until this game is final before they start their articles, but not me. The sad thing is, in the first half Maryland [...]

We are going to try something a little different today.  One of the great things about living in ACC country is that just about everyone has a friend or family member who follows an ACC school.  Think about it for a second.  If you are like me, you can go right down the schools and [...]

Wow, this last weekend just goes to show you that anything is possible in college hoops.  Clemson goes in and loses to ACC Cellar Dweller Virginia.  Maryland puts together one of its top two performances all year.  You just never know what to expect.  But I know you are all here to get up to [...]

I so wanted to use the phrase down the stretch they come, but it’s just a little too early for that.  But what I am going to do is another look at the ACC.  Ultimately it would be cool to look at each teams remaining schedule and try to project them out, but after Clemson [...]

I hadn’t taken the time to put my two cents in from Saturday’s game against Virginia Tech yet.  So, here are some of my random thoughts. Eric Hayes, is having trouble getting the ball up against pressure.  I don’t remember feeling this way in the past, but the last few games, he has really had [...]
