Don’t get me wrong, there were a lot of positives in 2020, especially after losing 108 games in 2019 and 115 in 2018. Anthony Santander had a small-sample breakout with the metrics to back it up. Ryan Mountcastle looks ready to join the lineup in 2021 and Trey Mancini will hopefully be back at full strength after finishing his chemo treatment in September.

1–Taulia threw well on his short passes.
2– Peny Boone is a big powerful dude.
3-Lance put … Read More »

Finally, after a year full of questions and surprises, Maryland Football is back. To start this season the Terps will be heading to Northwestern’s Ryan Field for the first time in school history. It’s the second time the teams have played, with Northwestern taking the first game back in 2017, 37-21.
Last season, Northwestern had their worst year so far under Head Coach Pat Fitzgerald’s 14 year head coaching tenure, going 3-9 (the same record as Maryland). The … Read More »
