Yes it seems like Desmond Hubert may become a Tar Heel but not quite yet. If anyone is reading this and has contact with Desmond. Let him know he will be an afterthought in Roy’s lineup but an integral part in Gary’s right away.
Here is the bottom line–There is a buzz back in Btown about the O’s. Everywhere you go that is what the folks are talking about. It’s been a long time and I hope it is not just a fleeting moment in time.
Keep Brian Roberts off the 20 steal mentality. Give him a bonus if he has none. He is the glue of the lineup. remember last year his return to the lineup somewhat coincided with Buck’s return.
Some observations on a pathetic Championship game:
–The Big Guy Alex Oriakhi was the difference tonight 11 points, 11 rebounds 4 blocks and he just totally frustrated Matt Howard.
–I thought Shelvin Mack should have been given the ball way before the game was hopelessly over.
–As I predicted the team with the best player, Kemba Walker would win as usually happens.
–I wonder how many illegal phone calls and texts Calhoun’s staff made to Jeremy Lamb.
–The game seemed … Read More »
from Jeff Barker’s article in the Sun:
Smith: “He is rolling the dice to leave his name in, as not every scout we speak with projects him in the first round. He would benefit from (another) year at Maryland, but he appears to be prepared to attempt the jump to the next level. Williams impressed this year with his offensive development and dominant interior play. He shows a solid shooting form and developing post skills. He also shows the dedication … Read More »
Since the day Buck came to town everything has changed. It’s early, there are still many questions about the pitching but I am beginning to believe that this might really be a special year. Zach Britton gave the O’s 6 strong innings allowing just 1 run.
The following comment is why I love Buck: ” We’ve done enough to take that trust away. And I take the fan’s trust very seriously. It may sound hokey but that’s why we do … Read More »
Gino. What happened?
Hats off to Coach Tillman and the entire squad for getting off the canvas after the brutal loss last week to Carolina and going into Virginia and easily defeat the Cavaliers. The story from umterps.com: Senior Ryan Young led the No. 10 University of Maryland men’s lacrosse team with six points oon two goals and four assists, while junior Joe Cummings and sophomore John Haus each scored four goals, in the Terps’ 12-7 victory over No. 4 Virginia in front of … Read More »
Has there ever been a worse coach down the wire then John Calipari. A 25 ft 3 point shot was the best play he could design with a berth in the National Championship at stake? He overplayed Brandon Kinight to the point of exhaustion and finally his clock management was horrendous. when all was said and done it was the best player on each team that let UConn and Butler to a shot at the promised land. when it mattered … Read More »
It’s funny, I was talking with Stan on the Sports Maven this morning and said I would not allow Roberts to worry about stealing bases. He is too valuable as a hitter. Now that’s 2 games with 2 crucial hits. I was glad to see Buck yank Gonazo before he blew another game. I still can’t figure out why KOji is not the closer but I WILL NEVER SECOND GUESS BUCK-Baseball is back in Btown. by the way what a … Read More »
You have to love this kid. Yes he is the wrong size but that is where his deficiencies end. The word is hw\e desperately wants to follow his countryman, Greivis vasquez to Maryland. His upside is enormous. It seems like great kids come from Stu Vetter’s program. There are few players with the heart of Carrera.—Just my opinion.
