If the Lions front four is as strong as it looked tonight, they just might be the team to beat in the NFL. Matthew Stafford gets better with each game. Please don’t ever question the heart of jay Cutler after the beating he took Monday night.

Strengths:
The younger Cassell is starting to assert himself more on the offensive end shooting the ball off a jab and taking advantage of his 6’2, lengthy frame to post up smaller guards like his dad did for so long. He has the length to be a nice defender and guard the 1 or 2. Sam is able to see over the defense and pinpoint his pass. He has a high basketball IQ and knows how to … Read More »
Maryland women’s basketball sophomore Alyssa Thomas and senior Lynetta Kizer were both named to the Wooden Preseason Top 30 List, announced Monday. Maryland is one of seven schools to land multiple players on the list.
Maryland’s Joe Vellano was honored Monday by the Atlantic Coast Conference for his play in Saturday’s 21-16 loss at No. 13 Georgia Tech. Vellano was all over the field against the triple-option attack of the Yellow Jackets, who were held well below their season averages in points (21 – GT averaged 51.6 ppg), rushing (272 – GT averaged 378.2 pg) and total offense (386 – GT averaged 587 pg).

Let’s get it on. Five members of the 2002 National Championship, including 2 current NBA stars will suit it up for the Alumni Game at 10:30. Usually the game consists of Mitch Kasoff dominating play but this year might be different. (I do hope Mitch plays this year). What a great night it will be at College Park as the former Champions help kick off Mark Turgeon’s Maryland career.
We will be talking some Terp sports and certainly the growth of the Inner City Middle School Lacrosse League that the Commissioner founded.
When Darrius Heyward Bey was selected in the first round 3 years ago even local commentators were ridiculing Al Davis. Yesterday DHB had 7 catches for 99 yards and a 34 yd TD to honor the memory of Al Davis.

“In all the years I have been coaching, I have to single out….even though I don’t like to do this because we didn’t win the game….but I think he had probably one of the most outstanding performances I know I have ever seen out of a defensive lineman.”Joe Vellano, 20 tackles….just when you watch the film, when you watch how hard he played, he just did a phenomenal job.

In no way shape or form is this a 2nd guess. Coach Edsall was clearly correct in yanking Danny Saturday. CJ gave the team a spark and his 77 yard scamper for a TD proves there are definite times when he should be inserted in the lineup. However, though he experienced a few drops, his passes for the most part were so off the mark I was not sure where he was even throwing to. To defeat a Clemson or … Read More »
Before I start, I surely am thinking about Andrew Gonella who suffered a seemingly disastrous leg injury and had to be taken off the field by ambulance. He’s a great kid, who loves Maryland with all he has.
Let’s start with the good—the defense looked superb today. GT came into the game averaging almost 50 points a game–not todayonly 2 TD drives. Joe Vellano has 20 tackles including 14 solos. AJ Francis, had 9, and David Mackall seemed like he … Read More »
