Official Maryland Terps Thread 2.0

The last part of that bite is why Xavier did it. Wells was pretty much the guy who threw a player 5ft which made Cincy clear their bench.

As far as basketball, legit NBA prospect. Personally I see a less athletic Shannon Brown. Not a knock, Shannon's a freak.

The thing I like about this clip is the swagger and in your face attitude. He's a dawg and you can't have many maybe 1 or 2. Those guys get your team going but you've got to calm them down. A coach like Turgeon can handle it.

The Harrison twins are likely going to College Park for Midnight Madness on Oct. 12, according to a source

I think they are coming to Maryland, and that is probably when they're going to make it official, Wizardspride.

also rollin The Harrisons have been EXTREMELY high on Kentucky and with the addition of wells (i am sad we missed out on local product TWICE btw) they would make Maryland relevant again.

I think the Terps need to know pretty soon because the likelihood is either they sign Roddy Peters or the Harrison twins. Dez Wells took the available scholarships down to two in 2013-2014. They don't want to wait and miss out on Peters. It could also help that Nerlens Noel's recruitment by UK is being investigated by the NCAA.

UK sources don't sound overly concerned about the twins coming to Maryland's Midnight Madness.

Maryland’s midnight madness event will be held Oct. 12, which is the same night as UK’s and less than three weeks before the pair’s (somewhat) established decision date of Oct. 29.

Could a big-time event that close to the end of their recruitment have that much of an effect on the outcome? Daniels says probably not.

“Ultimately, are these kids making their college choice on a midnight madness trip or anything like that? I don’t think so,” he said.

Daniels pointed out that Shaquille Cleare, a former teammate of the Harrisons and one of their best friends, is Maryland’s top incoming freshman this season. The twins could be there partly to see him make his first appearance as a college player.

The Harrisons also already visited Lexington for Big Blue Madness last season. Why make a return trip for the same event? With the Cats and Terps solidly established as their top two choices, maybe the twins just want to see what the other school does to tip off its season.

I think that article is probably their best rationalization, but in fact is good news for Maryland. I can't see it being anything but good for them to see Cleare and even Lyman, the guy they faced and lost to his team in AAU competition, suit up for Maryland.

Don't worry CCJ. In talking to some MD "insiders" room will be made "available" for both the Harrison twins AND Roddy Peters.

If Dezmine Wells is cleared, expectatons spike for the #Terps. Turgeon will have a bevy of big, athletic lineups and mismatches available.

Turgeon: "This is a new beginning and a fresh start for Dez at Maryland... I know he will be a good student-athlete and teammate."

Jeff Ermann ‏@insidemdsports

Turgeon says process of requesting a waiver should take 4-5 weeks. Believes Xavier won't block it and says school will have a good case.

The win over Temple was ugly in the second half, but they put together a real nice touchdown drive to seal the win.

I still don't like Edsall. He got on Diggs when Diggs muffed the punt. I thought that was unnecessary and that Randy Edsall is a jerk.

It was good to see Diggs and Hills hook up on that fade route. The freshmen pulled it out.

The good news is the Terps held on to win despite 6 fumbles and some shaky pass coverage, along with offense that got passive.

We're gonna get smacked by WVU.

We're gonna get smacked by WVU.

Probably so.

[Wizardspride]

OK...this is the deal. The Harrisons had a family meeting this weekend and graded the 5 remaining schools.

The 5 schools (UK,MD,Baylor,SMU,Villanova) will be visiting the Harrisons this week in Texas to make thier final pitch.

[go'stags]

I wonder if a representative from Under Armour will be present at Maryland's meeting.

Supposedly, UA already made a presentation the to Harrisons.

Rumors are UA has offered to make the Harrison twins the "face" of the company.

Suitland's Roddy Peters remains undecided, but admits he's been chatting w/other top locals about teaming at UMd

I'm fearful that Coach Cal will come into the Twins house with a suitcase full of cash, like he does with all of his recruits.

I hope not.


Fwiw, Turgeon met with Harrison family at 7pm.

[Chocolate City Jordanaire]

Today, I'm thinking I will be happy with Roddy Peters and others. If those guys' dad had pull they would have committed to Maryland already.

#Terps freshman Sam Cassell Jr. unlikely to play for the MD this year- and perhaps beyond– due to eligibility issues.

I would be surprised if Peters doesn't commit within the week. Scholly just opened up for 2013.

I was thinking the same thing.
