DJ Reader


There's a long and detailed paywall story about DJ by rivals - link: http://maryland.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1324165 - that is worth reading for anyone who has access. Apparently DJ is going to decide on Sunday night. He's been telling reporters that Clemson is his leader but this story, an interview with his dad, makes a compelling case for Maryland. I'm not going to leak anything with respect to the paywall, but the story offers good insight into the way he's been recruited by Stewart and Bakich and the things he values. I'll say this much - the dad recognizes that the kid's path to playing time is much clearer at Maryland in both football and baseball, and that does seem to be a priority.

Aside from Diggs, Reader is our most important recruit. Kirven is highly doubtful at best, and Diggs is a complete and total wild card. Reader has us in his top two and is a very real possibility and very, very important to us based on roster and positional needs. I'll keep my eyes peeled tomorrow evening for his decision.

With Diggs, I'm hoping that it may be like it was with Brown, where he's playing around and getting some deserved spotlight, but will then stay home when push comes to shove. Do I think it's likely? No, but I'm hoping.
