Memo-30 Gary ‘s Post Game Press Conference
This one really hurts. I journeyed up to Chesnut Hill todayand suffered through another nip and tuck battle that the Terps barely lost.
Some of the bad points:
Maryland had no answer for Reggie jackson who finished with 31 points on 12-16 shooting, including 1 of 5 threes very late in the game that served as the dagger.
The Terps fall to 5-5 in the conference in a game that was perceived to be a bubble game.
Adrian and Cliff just didn’t have it today as they combined for a mere 5 points in 37 minutes of play.
Jordan Williams could only muster 7 shots as he was double and triple team every time he touched the ball.
John Cahill , a 21 year old walk on Senior inspired the team and the crowd with 9 points in a strong 25 minutes.
Though the arena was a virtual sellout, where was the student body? BC officials told me only about 250 of the student tickets were claimed.
Some of the good points:
The 2 freshman guards were excellent today and we might even see them start together. The finished with a combined 28 points on 10-22 shooting.
Dino Gregory, again, was steady as could be finishing with 15 points on 6-11 shooting.
Myself and Jeff Barker talked to Jordan post game:
Some interesting points about Conte Forum:
It only hold 8600 in a one deck arena.
It is attached to the football stadium as some of the skyboxes can watch both venues.
Parking was within 1000 ft of the arena.
Clam Chowder is a staple at every food booth.
So now the Terps are up against the wall. If it is going to take 10 wins, to make the dance there is little room for error. 6 conference games remain including 1 tough one at Carolina. First up is Virginia Tech on the road Tuesday night.

let’s be honest. yesterday md made reggie jackson look like a lottery pick. late in the game he gets a 3 without anyone contesting him. how can you not play this guy chest to chest late in the game. poor perimeter defense throughout the game. bc had open looks all day long. i guess md’s coaching staff have never seen a zone before because they have no idea how to attack a zone and get the ball inside to jordan williams. going into the game bc was one of the worse rebounding and defensive teams in the acc. bc shot better than md and md out rebounded bc by one. looks like for the 5th time in the last 8 yrs (it may be 4th in last 7) md will be going to the
n i t. poor coaching, poor perimeter defense, not enough rebounding. nice game for dino, stoglin and pe shon..the rest of the team didn’t show up.
