Maryland continues to impress at home. They rung up a 92-71 victory over the reeling Tar Heels. It was a game that looked like Maryland was going to blow it up at the beginning, and Carolina made a game of it, before the Terps put them away late.
The first half was a shooting display that [...]
Maryland got the road win we so desperately wanted to see. A close game, where they had to fight for all 40 minutes. This wasn’t the type of game we saw early in the ACC schedule when the Terps were seemingly firing on all cylinders. This was a game where there were a lot of [...]
It looked like fine times at Comcast Center again tonight. There was a little more intensity in the building, and a few more fannies in the seats it appeared. The ACC opener was here, and for the first half it looked the Terps were going to make it a cake walk.
Eric Hayes and Landon Milbourne [...]
Even with Greivis Vasquez starting the game on the bench as punishment for being late to a team shoot around, the Terps took a commanding early lead only to have to scratch and claw for 40 minutes to get the win. With Vasquez coming off the bench, Adrian Bowie started in his spot, and fresh [...]
A mid-December game against Eastern Kentucky, wouldn’t normally elicit a ton of interest, but this is the game where Dino Gregory is expected to make his return to the lineup. The Terps will be very happy to back another big man, if for nothing else, some added depth.
The problem is Maryland is going to need [...]
Reports are out that Dino Gregory’s suspension will end on December 12th, and will be eligible to play immediately. There are still no reports of what exactly the reason of the suspension was other than the broad “violation of team rules” explanation the University has given out. For the Terps this is very good news. [...]
In this half of the Terps basketball preview, we are going to look at the Maryland big men. A year ago, that term was kind of a misnomer considering Dave Neal was the starting center, and he was about 6′5″ and Landon Milbourne moved from small forward to power forward. Though the Terps have added [...]
I logged on to write about the exhibition game, but the bigger news is the fact that forward Dino Gregory is out for a “violation of team rules”. Of course the laws prevent the school from releasing information on these things, but what is scary to me is, there is no mention of how long [...]
All major local media outlets (turtledroppings.com included) are reporting Sophomore Center Braxton Dupree will be transferring. In 25 games with the Terps, Braxton averaged 2.1 points and 2.4 rebounds per game. He showed promise a couple of times, and then he would regress. Each season his minutes decreased as the season moved on. There has [...]
The Terps Men’s Basketball team held it’s annual Basketball Awards Celebration last week. Gary Williams gave the team MVP award to both Greivis Vasquez and Dave Neal. For Neal it was based on his much needed leadership, as much as his play. Vasquez also won the award for the most assists with 176 for the [...]
