As Gary said in his post game comments, the loss to Syracuse was a microcosm of the season The Terps finished at 19-15 but in several games including last night’s they dominated early only to turn in a flat uninspiring performance down the wire. The zone thoroughly frustrated Maryland as the game wore on. Greivis had a quiet game yet still turned in 8 points and 8 assists. Freshman Cliff tucker and Braxton Dupree turned in strong … Read More »
Gary mixed up the starting lineup tonight essentially going with 3 guards (Hayes, Greivis, and Bowie) and it seemed to work in a 10 point over a vastly inferior Minnesota team. Grivis scored a quiet 16 points and Bambale had 14. It is hard to believe the Gophers were actually favored over the Terps!!! Next up Syracuse Thursday night at 7PM. The Lady Terps (30-3 on the year) earned a #1 seed out west based on their incredibly … Read More »

Yes it has taken me a day to recover from the Terps collapse against BC. Enough has been said, and disappointment reigns supreme. As a guy who loves the Terps, all I can do is say next year will come sooner then you think and hopefully Sean Mosley, Gus Gilchrist and this year’s underclassmen can find those extra wins that were needed. The biggest potential loss I fear would be if Greivis opts out for the pros, whether … Read More »
