I’m back from my self-imposed week long hiatus.  Once Evil Drew Nicholas doomed our season, I needed a break from writing.  Some unattributed quotes overheard last week:

When the shot went in, I had to take a knee
I woke up at 5AM on Tuesday, started thinking about the shot and I couldn’t go back to sleep.
There [...]

If there was a debate about Greivis’ place at Maryland, Gary settles it.  For all his warts, I’ve never been more convinced that there is no other human being on this planet fit to coach this team.
I need to stop because it’s getting a little misty here in Chicago….

Stomach Punch.
Call it the most gut-wrenching loss in Maryland history.  Call it the anti-Drew Nicholas.  Whatever you want to call it; I’m left shell shocked and I don’t mean that as a pun.  I’ve been wandering the streets of neighborhood (still freezing cause I live in fucking Chicago) with the sound of Korie Lucious’ shot [...]

Form here on out, every game the Terps play is the biggest game the team has played since the National Championship game in 2002.  Simply put, Maryland has an incredible opportunity to make a deep run this year.
Yesterday’s events have only increased the urgency. Now that Kansas – the odds on favorite – has been [...]

Houston, you had a problem.  His name was Jordan Williams.  21 points, 17 rebound and he is a freshman.  Perhaps the most exciting part is that players usually improve the most between their freshman and sophomore seasons. But, surely that is a topic for another time.  There are still game(s) to be played this season.

The Terps must wait for 31 of the 32 first round games to start before they can tipoff.  Let’s hope that it is worth the wait.
I’m not going to waste time profiling the Houston Cougars.  I haven’t seen them play.  That’s not to say that they aren’t capable of beating Maryland.  They are.  Anyone can [...]

I’m at work; but I want to throw up a thread so Soupers can discuss the most wonderful day of the year.  More to come.

Okay, so it took me a few days to get my thoughts together after everyone here in Michigan has been starting to talk their trash about a possible Terps-Spartans matchup in Round 2. I’ve been offered a ton of bets from a ton of people, but I refused to think about making any wagers [...]

While as Terp fans, we won’t be sweating out whether or not Maryland will be in the Tournament; there is still much to worry over. As Georgia Tech pointed out on Friday night; there are certain matchups that put the Terps at a disadvantage.  Namely, big athletic front court players who can dominate the boards [...]

There should be no excuses. It’s not okay. It’s very disappointing and it DID matter…. BUT..
RELAX!!
There was a lot of angry back and forth during the game and I have to admit I got caught up in it too. It’s all out of frustration and while I disagree with plenty of the [...]
