Maryland Minute - 04.07.11 - Is Gregg Doyel Writing A Story About Gary Williams or Not?
Not too much going on right now. I thought yesterday would see a story about Gary and the NC State coaching search come out from our favorite CBS writer, Gregg Doyel, but SVP seems to imply that no story is immanent...
DC Sports Bog - Dan Steinberg - The Washington Post
SVP weighs in on the Gary v. Yow fight. This quote was the most interesting, as SVP implies that no story is coming from Doyel...
The Gregg Doyel piece of it, I think she was expecting an article to be coming. My understanding [is] I don’t think that’s coming. I don’t know why you’d ever say something like that. If you think that you were gonna get Rick Barnes or Sean Miller or somebody like that and you didn’t because Gary Williams told him not to go, then you’re out of your mind.

Jeff Goodman offers advice for various college basketball kids thinking about going pro. His advice to Jordan, which I think is spot on:
JORDAN WILLIAMS, MARYLAND He’s not a big fan of the academic component of school, but neither was I. The Terps' big man put up huge numbers this year, but no one cared because he did it in obscurity. Next year, he’ll have older guards who can make his life easier. Goodman’s advice: I’ve known Williams for a long time, and it’s best for his future if he comes back and plays his way into the first round, which is a realistic possibility.

Greg Doyel is the worst kind of "journalist".
Trying to make a name for himself by trashing someone else. His remarks on that NC radio show the other day just blew me away. I don’t know if , or where this prick went to journalism school, but I’d hope the UMD journalism school would stress a little thing called objectivity and also to never make the story about yourself. “If GW doesn’t call ME back then…blah blah blah.”
Pathetic wannabe sports writer. I think he must be hearing it from a massive amount of folks in his “hate mail” box, about how unprofessional and childish he is being. I don’t expect to ever see this supposed “story” he’s working on either. Real cowards are ALL TALK. What a douche.
BTW, Dave, is this site associated with CBSsports.com? I see a little logo at the bottom of the page saying you guys are “official partners”. If that is indeed the case, then I have total respect for you in calling out Doyel like you have. Keep up the good work.
I like how Steinberg sums up his Gary/Yow blog post
“I’d be more than happy to post a Debbie defense if anyone can find one.”
Ha.
Jared Guest
Matt Bracken from the Baltimore Sun is reporting that 2011 Post-Grad PF prospect Jared Guest will be visiting Maryland early next week. Recruiting services have him as a 6’8, 190 PF with great leaping ability, but serious concerns about ability to guard high-major bigs. He has been offered by NC State, Xavier, Georgia, and is getting interest from Western Kentucky and Clemson.
This is the closest thing I could find to a defense of yao
It says that she probably made mistakes but (I’m paraphrasing) she’s a bullying hotheaded bitch and that’s what the ignorant hick fanbase wants.
Doubt, indulged and cherished, is in danger of becoming denial; but if honest, and bent on thorough investigation, it may soon lead to full establishment of the truth.

Dave telep had an insider article mentioning that carrera really wants to go to MD and that he thinks Gary will go for him. Also he quotes shaq saying MD is going after him the hardest

Carrera
Would be a decent get. That would be 4 player’s from Montrose Christian. That would be a brand new pipeline. Something that DeMatha isn’t giving us. Then there is the future potential having won the HS national championship Stu Vetter might have more better player’s for that Pipeline. Go Terps!

I would ask that if that idiot
does post some sort of hit piece on Gary, that it not be linked here. The last thing we need is to be giving someone like that attention and hits which will in turn lead to increased revenue for him.
agreed.
but it would be tough to keep the genie in the bottle, so to speak. I’d rather see the “story” and let his sponsors here about it from us, loud and clear.
