Boxing is one of those sports where I never once fantasized about being a champion. As a child, I dreamed of catching the winning pass in the Super Bowl, I dreamed of hitting the walk off bottom of the ninth, down 3 runs in game 7 with the bases loaded grand slam. I even dreamed about [...]
I don’t even know what to say anymore. We are offically underdogs going into Duke. If this was the show “Intervention” this would be the part where we wake up naked in a ditch somewhere. We have indeed reached rock bottom. What scares me the most about this year is that we could very easily [...]
Well it looks like I need to upgrade my internet. The Maryland Duke game is scheduled for 1:30 pm on ESPN 360. As Chris says, you might want to get fimilar with ESPN360 because I think we may be using it a lot for the rest of the season. If there is any good news, [...]
Well the excitement of the big win over Clemson can only go on for so long. Then it’s time to prepare for the next match up. No rest for the wicked. And now we move on to Winston-Salem down in North Carolina to face the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. If we are really going to [...]
Let’s face it. Those of us that attended Maryland in Mid 90′s until Friedgen’s arrival, knew exactly when basketball season began, because football was usually over in late September despite what the schedule said. With that in mind, the ACC finally released the 2009-10 basketball schedule, and I for one can not be more excited. [...]
It was only a matter of time when you think about it. The economy is in a tough spot and when stuff like this happens, the first things to get cut are the non essentials. Of course the term “Non Essential” is a relative term. For example for the University of Maryland, non essentials are [...]
Well I’m sitting down here in North Carolina, aka the heart of ACC Country as I begin my vacation. Up in College Park there are a bunch of kids in the exact opposite situation. For tomorrow is the start of fall practice, and for all intensive purposes, the start of the season. In a way [...]
Sometimes on signing day you get an unexpected loss. Rarely (at Maryland) do you get an unexpected gain. Nick Klemm fits that mold. He originally verballed to Boston College, but with the firing of Jeff Jagodzinksi he decided to make a change. WIth that the Terps get a little more depth at offensive line, and [...]
Next up for Meet the Newbies is another incoming Linebacker. Bradley Johnson is a 6’1″ 210 lb lineback coming to us via Dinwiddie High School down in Virginia (just southwest of Petersburg to be exact). While at Dinwiddie HS Bradley recorded 124 tackles and 4 interceptions in 2008. His Junior year was equally impressive with 113 [...]
I always get excited when I hear one of our recruits is graduating early to get a head start on school and most importantly for us fans, football practice, conditioning, and weight training. Will Darin Drakeford make it on to the field this year? I wouldn’t count on it, but there will be spots opening [...]
