If you are a regular listener to Terp Talk you have often heard me say that if I had a choice of Lance Stephenson or Greivis Vasquez for the next year , I clearly wanted Greivis.

This story is so complex it is impossible to make any rational observation … Read More »

When I signed a scholarship to come to Maryland, I promised my family back home in Venezuela that I would graduate, and … Read More »
Happy days are here again as Greivis Vasquez has put his NBA career plans on hold to return to Maryland for his Senior year. At 3:08 PM , I received the text from terrapintimes.com that yes Greivis will return!!!!! Much more as the day progresses.
From terrapintimes.com comes the info that Greivis Vasquez has been huddled most of the day with Coach Gary Williams and Montrose Christian Coach and legal US guardian, Stu Vetter. According to terrapintimes.com, Greivis is waiting for some sort of guarantee from an NBA team that he will indeed be selected in the draft.

“Greivis Vasquez, Jr., Maryland: A number of teams contacted by ESPN.com said Vasquez is a strong second-round selection, but if he returned he could be a solid first-round pick in 2010. Maryland coach Gary Williams is adamant that Vasquez will be top-20 in 2010. Williams said Thursday night that he’s confident Vasquez will make an informed decision, sounding like someone who doesn’t think his top point guard is leaving. But it’s a bit early to project. Vasquez has one more … Read More »

Zagsblog posted an article this morning about the latest in Lance Stephenson’s recruiting. In the article, Lance Stephenson Sr. mentions the efforts our coaches have taken to put Lance in a Terp uniform.
“I talk with Coach [Gary] Williams, Coach [Keith] Booth and Coach [Chuck] Driesell, they’ve just been there,” he said. “Maryland is going through their process where they want to pick a player and they’re not putting any rush on us. They want Lance to be sure … Read More »
