TRANSLATION: Brenda is not a great person. GOD TOLD DESTINY.

I believe Frese berated the players but THE COACH FAILED TO STAY HUMBLE.

Maryland's Two-Man Class Showing Great Promise

Incoming Maryland freshmen Darryl Morsell and Bruno Fernando weren’t able to play together in the Capital Classic on Saturday, but the all-star event strengthened a bond that began when they committed to the Terps last fall and bloomed when they took their official visits to College Park the same weekend last month.

The day after Maryland lost to Northwestern in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals, Fernando joined Mark Turgeon on a two-hour trip to watch Morsell -- and top 2018 targets Jalen Smith and Prentiss Hubb -- at the Alhambra Catholic Invitational Tournament in Frostburg. Morsell’s final high school game ended in a loss in the championship game -- which had to be bittersweet for Turgeon, whose son Will was on the winning team (Gonzaga) -- but it didn’t ruin the weekend. Morsell said he and Fernando “held their own” in pickup games when they returned to College Park and that experience only increased the confidence they have in each other to make an impact right away as freshmen next season.

“I’m not impressed with anything [Morsell] does because I know how good of a player he is,” said Fernando, who sat out of the Capital Classic after banging knees with a teammate in practice Friday night. “I’m just excited to step on the court and go to Maryland with him and start playing. He’s a great player and an even better young man.”

“Bruno is just versatile. He can do everything. I don’t see any weaknesses in his game as of right now. I think when he steps in in College Park he’s going to be a big help,” said Morsell, Fernando’s roommate for the event.

Brantley has a lot of heart. He improved quite a bit this season.

I wish him the best moving forward elsewhere.

He wasn't bad. A 5-10 shooting guard. They were really too small at guard last season and need to get bigger. I know they are looking at a few combo guards. I think he could thrive at a mid-major school.

He's really maximizing his NCAA hoops experience. Brantley was an AAU teammate of "Sunshine" Layman. He played JC ball prior to UMCP. Now, he's leaving after two seasons at UMCP to get max playing time elsewhere.

Very smart.

Excellent move for Turge taking on Broadus. He's basically been a D.C. lifer after a long stint at Georgetown and G.W. Bowie State grad. I guess a demotion for Cliff Warren.
