If you are a regular listener to Terp Talk you have often heard me say that if I had a choice of Lance Stephenson or Greivis Vasquez for the next year , I clearly wanted Greivis. Now after Greivis’ announcement to return for his Senior year comes word from Jeff Barker and the Sun that Maryland is out of the recruitment for Born Ready, Lance Stephenson. This story is so complex it is impossible to make any rational observation … Read More »

“Stephenson, arguably the nation’s most overprized high school basketball talent, would have to decide whether a scholarship is a priceless gift or an unwanted obstacle; he’d have to either commit to an education or forgo the charade and play a year in Europe, where he could learn to insult his teammates and coaches in a foreign language before he skips to the NBA and becomes Commissioner David Stern’s latest ward.” Jenkins is in favor of making all first years sit … Read More »
Zagsblog posted an article this morning about the latest in Lance Stephenson’s recruiting. In the article, Lance Stephenson Sr. mentions the efforts our coaches have taken to put Lance in a Terp uniform.
“I talk with Coach [Gary] Williams, Coach [Keith] Booth and Coach [Chuck] Driesell, they’ve just been there,” he said. “Maryland is going through their process where they want to pick a player and they’re not putting any rush on us. They want Lance to be sure … Read More »
NBA draft .net was not kind in assessing Greivis’ performance at he NBA combine. He still has several workouts remaining and of course European ball is still open for him. Remember only one team has to be in the kid’s corner. One thing is for sure the University community will always be in his corner. The most interesting thing I am waiting for is to see the immediate reaction of the Stevephson camp to Greivis’ decision.
From zagsblog comes the news that X is wavering about his Kansas decision. So where might he be considering: Kentucky of course with the Carpetbagger himself, John Calipari. Remember Kansas was Lance’s first choice but then again Lance is not a guy to play second fiddle. Has anybody ever questioned why it is that Calapari gets any player he wants.
Meanwhile in the Lance Stephenson front: a couple of intriquing articles on Born Ready: from Yahoosports.com … Read More »
