Former Maryland coach Gary Williams said today that the school’s proposed move to the Big Ten would be a tremendous boost for the Terps’ athletic program. In a telephone interview with The Baltimore Sun today, Williams said the school’s long history with ACC doesn’t pay the bills. “You look around today with what’s going on, and those schools [in the Big Ten] are certainly in keeping with what Maryland feels about academics. You look at a school like Notre Dame that signed its own … Read More »

“I did something privately for him where I made a tape for him, gave him a toast. They didn’t have anything in the glass so I guess he owes me a drink. But, I love what Gary did for our league, not just for Maryland. He’s a fierce competitor, really one of the outstanding coaches in the history of college basketball, not just in the conference. I think you have to reward his commitment.

“When he did come [to Maryland] … Read More »

Random thoughts:

I trust our AD to make the right call.

That being said I believe Maryland is A BIG TIME PROGRAM AND DESERVES A BIG TIME COACH!!!! WE NEED SOMEONE WHO HAS BEATEN BIG TIME OPPONENTS ON A REGULAR BASIS.

This hire is SOOOOOOOOO important to Terrapin Nation. I originally liked the idea of Sean Miller because I thought he wanted the job so much. I want someone who is dieing for the role. Someone who loves and understands Maryland … Read More »

The hunt goes on. I guess when you try to hire someone who is already making 1-2 million a year, you better have 3 or 4 guys ready as backups. At this moment -that is 1AM Monday morning perhaps the field looks like the following:

John Lucas– a late entry who has coached on many levels and of course is the accomplished point guard for the Terps under Lefty—longshot

Mike Brey -Coach of the Regular season Big East champion Notre … Read More »

It’s clear that Shaquille is one of the final pieces of the puzzle Coach Williams believes will create a title contender in 2012. According to Keith Cavanaugh tonight on Terp talk, Gary just made his 3rd trip to Houston. Keith believes its between Texas A&M and the Terps with Maryland having a slight edge. The 2012 class’ first member is the phenom Justin Anderson from Montrose Christian.

Last year when NC State rifled the Champs Sports Bowl away from a more deserving Terrapin squad, I kept my mouth shut not trying to provoke the obvious. when Coach Tom O’Brien ridiculed the Maryland faithful, I could take it no longer. Maryland soundly thrashed the Wolfpack yet behind the scenes deals and manipulations probably cost the Terps the game and eventually Ralph his job. That is what I dislike about the ACC —it is a Carolina situation. Now I … Read More »
