I have been to the Coral Gables Arena. It might hold 7500 but last night the camera had to keep moving to avoid a really embarassing crowd. Is that how you reward your players on Senior Night? What would ever make a recruit want to go to the U. Basketball recruit that is. For some unknown reason, Coral Gables brings out the worst in the Terps.
Going into last night’s game, I had written that winning the final 2 regular … Read More »
Barring an unforseen collapse the Terps have taken care of business winning back to back at home. They are now 7-6 in conference with a monster game at Chapel Hill Sunday night. Pull the upset at Carolina and the Terps float back into the dance. Tough game for FSU without its leader Chris Singleton but the Terps did what they had to. It was great to see Adrian play a pivotal role in the game.
Dino Gregory continues to improve … Read More »
The guards are getting it done tonight. Terrell has ignited that new gear he discovered at Virginia Tech. When he is at full speed he is unstoppable. About now FSU is pining for Chris Singleton. Jordan Williams makes a snowbird to send the Terps up 55-44. Dino from PeShon. White answers for the Seminoles. Dino answers with a 3 point play. Dino draws a charge. Bowie hits a pair of free throws 61-49 Terps
The Terps actually were up 36-27 but rendered 3 easy inside buckets against their zone as FSU closed the gap to 1
Kyle Singler was too much for the Terps tonight. It’s funny but until Duke made its title run Singler was virtually not anywhere to be seen in the mock drafts. But now, with another year under his belt Kyle’s stock is through the roof. Again the bench for Duke did us in. Dawkins and Curry were a combined6-12 with 5-9 from the 3 point line. Overall Duke was 10-23 from the three line.

I thought Maryland would win easy which you heard if you listened to Terp talk last night, but I thought Jordan might lead the way. Well. last night it was Adrian Bowie and PeShon Howard who combined for a totally dominating effort while they were on the court together. Adrian hit several open shots on sharp passing from from the Freshman guard from Oak Hill. PeShon was 4-5 from the field with 3 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, and 0 … Read More »
It’s good to be back in the win column but I assure you it took a heackuva effort to complte the task. Afterward Gary was extremely pleased with the play of his Seniors, as Adrian, Cliff and Dino played excellent games. Some thoughts on a tough ACC battle:
Gary post game:”I thought our offense was as efficient as it’s been in a while. Clemson is a team that has been winning, and you can tell by the way they play. … Read More »
Utterly amazing. the Terps are 11-5 and all 5 losses could have easily have gone the other way. Fouls shots, clutch shooting, short lapses in defense have all contributed to the 5 losses. somehow or another the 3 non conference losses were all on neutral courts. Now the Terps travel to Philly to face Villanova or “Montrose North” as we know it. The Terps have proven they can play with anyone. Their intensity and overall preparation are unmatched. THEY NEED … Read More »
It was great to cover a game for Maryland last night after the week of Coaching conjecture. The Men’s bball team responded with a crushing defeat of the Highlanders from New Jersey. Maryland was coming off a 10 day break after it’s opening ACC loss to BC. Gary place Pe”shon in the starting lineup giving Cliff Tucker a seat on the bench for but a few minutes. Gary said … Read More »
