Eric updated his Facebook page today and told the world that he would be headed to Spain.  I couldn’t be happier for the kid.  He’s going to one of the better professional leagues in Europe.  It’s a league that has birthed a few NBA stars: Pau, Rudy Fernandez, and currently, the world’s best point guard [...]

There is not much to add other than a hearty congratulations to the reigning ACC Player of the Year, Greivis Vasquez.  Memphis fans (do they exist?) will grow to love the General just as we have.
My passion for the NBA has waned over the years, but I will always root for Greivis. Always.

It’s good to be back Soupers. After missing the second half of last semester due to academic reasons that can’t be disclosed due to my status as an amateur, then traveling through Europe for a month, I have returned. I’ll be around for the foreseeable future, entering my final year at Maryland.
I’ll pick up where [...]

Watch this video.
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 [...]

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 back.  I’ve spent the last 4 days in Phoenix, AZ (where it rained and didn’t get above 60 degrees) at my company’s National Sales Conference.  Needless to say, I had no time to do any actual work, let alone write a blog post.
During my hiatus, both Greivis and Gary won the honors they deserved. [...]

As promised (even though I’m a little late), here are some quotes I got from the Duke presser yesterday. It was my first one of these, and it was pretty cool. There were about 25 reporters (including familiar Terp faces like Patrick Stevens, Seth Hoffman, Steve Yanda and Jeff Barker), a bunch of cameras and [...]

What a game.  Vasquez turned in the best second half I can remember.  He was 11 for 23 in the second half.  He wilted down the stretch (finishing 4-14); but who can blame him?  The man played 48 minutes.
Vasquez made some mistakes (that 3pt with 6 seconds left in the first OT being the biggest); [...]
