On a night-in, night-out basis, the Terps have been able to count on Greivis Vasquez being the best player on the floor. No matter who the opponent has been (except for that Duke game), Greivis has without fail been the best player on the floor.
Jordan Williams has also been a consistent wonder. With double-digit rebound [...]

Admittedly this has brewing for a while as anyone who has read either my tweets or my comments, but I’ve been thinking about the recent string of games that has seen Williams turn from tentative tall dude to dominant defensive force, and I feel that, despite all the acclaim he’s received, it’s not enough.
There are [...]

The final installment of this entirely-too-long series has arrived. The three remaining teams on the schedule are Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech, and the Dookies.
I had an entirely different intro written and ready to go before the Clemson game happened, but it really doesn’t seem appropriate anymore. Instead I’ll say that no one other than Gary [...]

Okay, now that everyone’s had 24 hours to digest the awesomeness that was the Terps’ beatdown of Miami last night. Everyone’s had their chance to brag to their friends that the Terps are on top of the ACC, and have in no way left any doubt that they’re better than BC, NC State and Miami. [...]

After a stellar opener to ACC play, I can now take a more optimistic tone with the next installment of my previews. Up next are Miami, Clemson, North Carolina and Virginia. This is a rough stretch of games that we need to do well in to go dancing. Luckily, with the senior leadership and steady [...]

Terps ACC Schedule Preview
This is my attempted at a long-winded, in-depth analysis of every ACC team (Sorry, Longwood) the Terps will play this season, how we match up, games we should win, and so on and so forth.
We’ll go in order of matchups:
Florida State (Home on Jan. 10, Away on Feb. 4)
Breakdown: Maryland will face [...]

Anyone who has followed the Terps over the last two seasons would read that headline and think it blasphemous.  But, last night’s shooting performance has me feeling a little frisky and I thought I would explore it a little.
Let’s take a look at the Terps last 3 games:
Villanova: MD shot 9-19 from 3PT range (47%) [...]

In a game with two new additions to the starting lineup, high expectations for victory and finals just around the corner, the Terps needed to come out firing and put EKU away early to re-establish themselves as a rankings-worthy team. They didn’t.
Bowie started over Vasquez because GV was late to a morning shootaround and Dino [...]

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that if you are playing a directional Kentucky University that doesn’t have “Western” in front of it; the game should be a cakewalk.  Despite playing Pitt (who lost to Indiana this week) relatively close, I don’t expect the Colonels to challenge the Terps this evening.
That’s [...]

As you all know, college basketball kicked off this week and our Terps are set to tip off in less than 48 hours time.  I will be in Vegas for the occasion.  Actually, I won’t be in Vegas specifically for MD vs. Charleston Southern.  Let’s just call it a coincidence.  [...]
