What a day for Coach Edsall and the Terps. The hire of Mike Locksley is paying off big time. Two 4 star recruits from the Friendship Collegiate Academy verbally committed last night as reported by terrapin times.com and recruiting guru Mike Farrell of Rivals.com.
Derwin Gray—6’4 291 lb offensive tackle rated #1 in the state and #6 in the country
Yannick Ngakoue–6’3 240 lb Linebacker
Apparently the announcement date will be Oct 28. The Harrisons will be in Btown this weekend visiting their family. No trip to College Park is planned. It appears the final 5 schools are Kentucky, Maryland, Baylor, Villanova, and SMU (Larry Brown). from terrapin times.com
It’s funny, I watched Neil Diamond on the American Idol a few weeks back and was disappointed. Since we already had tickets, there was no turning back. Well, surprise he was great last night. America, Forever in Blue Jeans, and of course Sweet Caroline stood out for me. He played for about 2 hours straight , no intermission and allowed me time enough to get home to watch the 4th quarter of the OKC Heat game.
I expected Miami to come out strong and they did tonight. A lot of times you build a big lead and the home team makes arun. But usually the run ends unsuccessfully as the team that makes the late run, runs out of gas.
Just a few observations:
In no way shape or form did I think KD was filed on the game tying bucket.
Please let’s never hear a word about LeBron hiding during crunch time. He was stupendous … Read More »
Almost these exact words were told to Kevin Costner playing farmer Ray Kinsella in Field of Dreams (the exact quote is, “If you build it, he will come”). The combination of Andy MacPhail and Dan Duquette has built it. Now the fans are starting to come and for the Orioles this season, it seems as though they’ve been playing on a field of dreams.
Lost in the fact that the Oriole’s are on a season-high tying five game winning streak with their 12-6 … Read More »

Miami over OKC —-everyone is jumping off the Miami bandwagon but Game 1 was a learning experience for the Heat. They now know they can’t run with the Thunder. Spoestra must realize the guy to cut off is Wetbrook. KD can’t be stopped but throw Westbrook off his game and the Heat will win. Heat 102 OKC 98
US Open —Winner Rory McElroy repeats!!!
Next 5 in whatever order—Dustin Johnson, Tiger, Lee Westwood, Luke Donald, Jason Dufner
What a glorious night at Camden Yards!!!The O’s coasted to a 7-1 victory behind recently exiled starting pitcher, Jake Arrieta. Jake went 7 innings and gave up just 1 run. He wasn’t exactly sharp but he got the job done.
Upon entering the stadium I ran into Terrapin football coach Randy Edsall there with his family.
I am … Read More »
terrapintimes.com reported yesterday that Obi will visit Maryland. Temple, Georgetown, and Villanova.
Some observations of a great opening game in the NBA Championship Series:
It is hard to believe that James Harden played such a small role in the game Tuesday night–5 points in 22 minutes
We all expect KD to play excellent as he did, exploding in the 4th quarter. But as I wrote about last night the X factor will be which Russell Westbrook shows up each night. Russell tore through the Miami Heat defense often making Dwayne Wade look … Read More »
