The outlook for this team will dramatically improve with his return. with the pressure of bringing the ball up court off Nick, Faust will become a much stronger offensive player. Most importantly the added depth will get everyone’s minutes more in line with Turgeon’s upbeat tempo. PeShon’s return will precede the beginning of Alex Len’s career at Maryland by just 1 game.
Maryland Adds Potential Lottery Pick in Len

Maryland announced Monday that Olexiy “Alex” Len has enrolled at the university and will be a member of the Terrapins’ squad for 2011-12.
One coach who requested anonymity called the 7-foot-1, 225-pound center from Antratsit, Ukraine a “lottery pick.”
“Best recruit in America,” the coach said. “Maryland got a lottery pick.”
Do not be fooled by the record. This team defeated George Mason on the road and has held its own with the Hokies and Coastal Carolina. I am a little worried about the health of Stogs. Remember he was limping at the end of the game against the Mount. Until PeShon and Len return, it’s very improbable that we can win without Terrell.
I was asked before the game started if the Terps would win by 30 tonight.

It was there to see last night at Verizon if Sean can get the rock with room to shoot, he can drill the jumper. When he scores 12 plus we have a much better chance to win. Turge has to be hammering this he to Sean. If he can get a little more selfish and drive to the bucket even more will open up for him.
The Terps finally overcame the Verizon problem with the win last night
Stogs ha 31 and Sean who always seems to play well at Verizon had 17
Padgetts game continues to improve as he was physically dominant
