Let’s see—Henson–NBA lottery pick——-Harrison Barnes—maybe 2nd pick in the draft—Tyler Zeller —lottery pick—Kendall Marshall—1st round NBA—At one point in the 2nd half Maryland was up by 9 –48-39–not bad—I wonder who is the better coach
Felt like it could have been the Twilight Zone–with Carolina displaying old time NBA names like– Harrison “Bad News ” Barnes—Kendall “Donyelle” Marshall. James Michael “Bob” McAdoo—PJ “Happy” Hairston—-Tyler “Gary” Zeller
Turgeon post game: “We played well again. [We] played with great hustle and great effort. We did a lot of things really well. [We] had a stretch in the second half where we couldn’t get into anything. Pe’Shon [Howard] was on the bench. [We] just didn’t look like we could get into anything, and when [Tyler] Zeller was out I thought we could’ve made a run. And then we made some mistakes defensively and couldn’t rebound. I know I’m going to watch the tape and probably be disappointed in our effort on the glass [which] is something I’m on these guys about. It was the number one key of the game for us and second was transition. We did a great job in transition, but we didn’t do a great job boxing out and rebounding and a lot of it is just [North Carolina’s] length and size. There’s a reason they were preseason number one in the country. They have really good players and I thought their best players stepped up. [John] Henson, [Harrison] Barnes and Zeller stepped up when the game was on the line and made all the plays.”
Stoglin 20 points again–forcing 3s today only 1-9
Alex Len continued his improved play with a dozen points, 9 rebounds and 4 blocks
Ashton and Padgett combined for 11 points and6 rebounds–not enough
As he often has done at home this year, Sean Mosley took over some of the offense down the wire finishing with 11 points.
Coach Turgeon looked extremely frustrated post game. He was incensed at Carlina rubbing the victory in our faces with Henson’s totally unnecessary dunk against a Terrapin team that had shut down for the last few seconds.
The students really got behind sending out strong signals to Stefon Diggs,THE uncommitted recruit out of Good Counsel. Chants of WE Want Diggs echoed throughout the arena all night.
So the Terps fall to 13-9 and 3-5 in the conference–Next Game Tuesday night at Littlejohn Coliseum in Clemson.
