Some commenta after a tough Maryland loss, closing the season at 4-8.:
There was never an ounce of quit in this team all year. Ww all need to give some props to Sean Petty,#31 who was stepped up when the Terps were desperate for a QB. Saturday he was 16 for 35 , for 204 yards.
Just another game for Stefon Diggs, 248 all purpose yards, a TD pass, a kickoff returned for a TD, 8 catches for 80 yards. … Read More »
I just don’t know what anyone could have expected today. Here’s a kid, Shawn Petty–a linebacker–true a QB in high school but never recruited to play college QB. Incredible that he threw 2 TDs to Stefon who probably deserves Rookie of the Week for the 5th time.
In what I hope turns out to be a minor injury, Wes Brown left the game at the end of the first half with an ankle injury.
It was somewhat disappointing that Tech … Read More »
Maryland’s Joe Vellano and Stefon Diggs earned weekly honors from the ACC for their play against Boston College, the league announced Monday.
Vellano was named the defensive lineman of the week, while Diggs was named Rookie of the Week. It’s the first weekly honor for Vellano this season and the fourth for Diggs; he has earned Rookie of the Week honors three times and Specialist of the Week honors once. from umterps.com
Everyone used to complain how difficult it was to learn Ralph’s playbook. Scott McBrien once told me it took one year to really get a grasp on the playbook. Several QBs never did master it. Shawn Petty has had 10 days , and by the way he has never taken a snap in college. Think about it.
As Frosty the Snowman once said, to paraphrase, the season is melting away. It was another devastating loss for the Terps this time at Boston College. Maryland loses 20-17.
This is the second week in a row that a game that was won, ends up being lost. Last week the Terps missed a short field goal with 2 seconds left to lose 20-18. This week, after a short catch by Diggs turns into a long touchdown and a 17-13 Terps … Read More »

My first thought when I heard that Randy had diverted 2 more guys into QBs was hey maybe something is wrong with Devin. Then I thought back to the end of the game vs NC State when someone said Devin was limping. I am sure Randy Edsall never says what else can happen because it already has. My heart goes out for Perry and now Devin. Football for back ups is always about chances. Perry Hills got his with CJ’s … Read More »
University of Maryland head football coach Randy Edsall on Thursday announced that quarterback Devin Burns (Lisfranc) and wide receiver Marcus Leak (fractured toe) will be out for the season. “Obviously this is something that is very tough on both of these guys and our team,” Edsall said. “I feel for both Devin and Marcus because I know they want to be out there competing. Both have been team-first guys who have done everything we have asked, and we will be here … Read More »
