PrintWord is that Diggs is announcing at Looney's. In College Park. So I guess the fact that he's not announcing on CSN isn't such a big deal, then.
For minimal spillover, keep your conspiracy theories, out-of-control celebrations, horrible meltdowns, and other such lovable nonsense in this thread.

Are you serious that he is announcing from Looneys?
He’d be the absolute biggest Dick ever if he announced from Looneys and did not commit to MD.
So now that I got that out, I can’t wait for the decision tonight!
The OSU fans
Have started to rip on him, stay classy OSU
No we didn't

seeing comments from auburn fans on it.
so I would say it is comments from aburn fans
I'm sure
I’m happy he is coming here rather than FL. But just look at the second comment in this thread and you could envision an absolute meltdown if he picked the hated Gators.

The hated gators?
I have nothing against the Gators at all, I’m actually happy his other three finalists are SEC schools rather than ACC schools. If we don’t land him, at least we don’t have to play against him.
I was just pointing out that it’d be a complete dick move to go to a College Park (UMD) bar and announce for another school
Trying to translate
I think “jfowler21012” is an Auburn fan (judging by his response to the accusation that “AU fans started [ripping Diggs] last night”).
Thus, his “I’m sure” post is just meant to say that he is glad that Diggs is going to Maryland rather than Florida (because he hates Florida, as an Auburn fan).
Finally, his “meltdown” point was basically to say “don’t get high and mighty Maryland fans, you too might meltdown if he picked another school, i.e., Florida.”
I could be wrong, but this is how I’m piecing it all together, haha.
well...if you put it like that
Then it makes sense. I still stick by my post though that I’d be angrier that he moved locations to a CP bar and picked another school than if he were to of stayed with the CSN announcement and picked another school. So yes, I guess he would be right that we’d have some in a meltdown point at how classless that would be
Like there weren't MD fans ripping Nate Britt, McGary, etc.
Come on. Don’t tell a fanbase to “stay classy” when MD fans have done some very similar things.

There are going to be some serious douchebags. I know that first hand. But as an overall fan base OSU is not any different from any other big-time athletic program.
How can you be excited, getting 5 stars is second nature in Gainesville.
I’d figure you’d be rather ho-hum, win some/lose some, we’ll get ours next year. For us, on the other hand, excited doesn’t quite do it justice. If he commits, tune in to CNN tonight and expect to see our goalpost on Rt. 1 surrounded by a half-dozen flaming couches. That’s how we show our “excitement” LOL

It was funny. Because a few rows behind me, there was a UF fan and a Maryland fan arguing over basketball.
The Gators of course were like a year and a change removed from a National Championship Game appearance, and Maryland was a very good team that year (ending up winning the National Championship).
Anyway, after like 10 minutes of arguing, all of the sudden someone yells “Just kick his….”
They were practically falling over rows, it was so violent.

Ha. Yeah, I can’t remember who won exactly. Though they were both taken away by security rather quickly.
Editor at Alligator Army.
Yeah it would be a shame if he sat in Looney's in College Park and DIDN'T commit to US
Wouldn’t that be the biggest slap in the face? I’m not a huge football fan though I am a HUGE TERP fan, so I know how important Diggs is to this recruiting class.
If I were a betting man ( and I am definitely not), I’d say he’s going to be a TERP. However I will hold me elation until I hear it from Diggs himself.
GO TERPS!!
it is hard not to get excited
but as much as he has been all over hte place in his recruitment I’m trying to hold back the excitement until he signs that LOI.
I have a dream
That one day, Stefon Diggs, was wearing Red, White, Black, and Gold.
I have a dream that one day Diggs will lead the nation in yards and touchdowns at the arm of DOB.
I have a dream that one day Stefon will lead the Terps to an ACC championship and relevance at the national level once again.
I have a dream today.

Starting to feel good
about that this might just happen. Maryland fans showed him a lot of love at the UNC game and as Djcarv2005 said I don’t know how you go to College Park to announce and not commit to Terps. Diggs will be an instant star at Maryland and he can get to the next level as a Terp just as easy as anywhere. Local sports media is going to stay all over his game. After years of being so close on several 5 star guys Terps are over due. Glad his mom likes Randy as has been reported. Can’t over state what Locks means to this team. Highly respected locally and kids want to play for him. I am wasted until this gets done. Hope to hear Diggs has invited Locks to Looney’s and ask him to bring a Terps hat with him. Go Terps!
I hope this sends a message to local stud recruits
that they should stay at home and bring the program into national prominence.
and his homeboy Wes
If he commits, it will send a message to top DMV talent that they can stay at home and help to build/rebuild the Dynasty

I think in Bens front page thread
When Looneys was first reported it said 6?
Ok, someone has to say it
SO, I guess I’ll do it.
If Diggs comes here, how much does this help us with Jalen Tabor and his stay at home movement?!
Well...
This might very well be Maryland’s biggest football recruit ever if he in fact does commit. It would also give us the best players from arguably the best football school in the state (I don’t pay enough attention to HS FB so I could be wrong on this).
Next, if these guys show some success in year one, specifically Diggs, then the flood gates will open up. It will show that the big time local recruits can come in and get playing time early and be successful. They would also be remembered as the recruits that turned the football program around.
So basically, this is where the stay at home movement really begins.
No, your right
HS ranking for the state of MD
1. GC
2. Gilman
3.FCA
This is what's happening
He rolls into Looney’s in a full MD Pride uniform, flanked by Locks, Wes Brown, Zach Dancel, Jalen Tabor, Shaq Cleare and the Harrison twins. They all arrive in a stretch hummer driven by Dalonte Hill. Book it.
Suddenly, Terps got swag.
Well, Dalonte can be up front....
but I’d rather someone else driving.

I will say I saw Diggs play vs Dematha as a sophomore and he was by far the best player on the field
And that was with that linebacker GC had that went to Florida and the DM running back that went to Iowa and a bunch of other big time guys. Diggs is without a doubt a can’t-miss prospect. 100 percent chance he’s NOT a bust wherever he goes. He’s like Ed Reed-always there making plays.
Can't believe this
Risking hyperbole, but this is the biggest get for UMD football EVER.
This kid is going to be legendary.
Can we also use this thread

Here is a Gator perspective on Diggs
Turns out there recruiting class was 75% defense so they are really really hoping to get Diggs. I hope we get him just for the national prestige alone.
http://recruiting.blogs.gatorsports.com/12282/happy-birthday-stefon/?tc=ar
as mentioned in this article
he better not pull a jeremy liggins
Good article
They pretty much narrow it down to Florida and MD. Although..I don’t like all of the facts they put in favor of Florida…it really sounds like Florida based on that article, but he’s announcing at Looneys so I think MD.
I’m glad we got the last official..seems to have helped a lot. If I would of read this after his official to Florida I’d of written him off to Florida
There are many Gators fans who are saying “Diggs will make or break the class.”

Make or break the class?
Dude, you’re sporting the #4 recruiting class in the nation. At best you go from 4th best to 2nd best.
This “makes or breaks” our class as we go from 39th (ish? not sure where we are now) to top 30/25 (who knows?)
Posts like that show us that we have a looooooong way to go
to get to the top.
by 1 proud terp on Feb 10, 2012 11:33 AM EST up reply actions
We can get there for basketball
I don’t think we ever will for football. I’d like to just be consistently top 25ish recruiting wise in football.
Agree
If we can make it into the top 30 for football that works for me. There are at least 15 schools that are nearly always going to be in the top 20 … Maryland is nowhere close to that point.

Good, but a lot of dot-connecting on why he thinks Diggs will go to UF
He’s playing with out-dated assumptions.
No Kidding
it is amusing how recruiting speculation takes you down some really hard to believe assumptions.
Looney's minutes from campus?
I don’t think they realize how close to campus Looney’s is (back patio is a view of campus) and that Diggs won’t make it out alive (at 6pm on a Friday, in CP) if he picks UF.
minutes is how long it would take an actual terrapin to get from Looney’s to campus.

Are we sure it's Looneys?
Because if he goes to Looneys, and announces for another school, thats a classless move. He would be hated. I can’t imagine he would do that. I can’t imagine those close to him would let him do that. It would be disrespectful to his family and friends, his home state, his boy Wes Brown, Locksley. I just can’t see it.
Boy, 6 p.m. can’t come soon enough.
I thought the same, especially because he doesn't live in CP
Going out of his way to announce in Looney’s? If it’s anything but Maryland, I shudder to think …
If he announces another school other than Maryland AT Looney's...
…they better have the riot police ready.
I’m live about 10 mins from Olney and its a solid 30 mins, closer to 50 in rush hour traffic. If he goes out of his way to announce in College Park and then chooses another school, that’s classless. I’ll never fault a recruit for a decision they make (or even a player for the most part) about where to go to school, but they can certainly get criticized for doing it in a classless manner.

I’ll never knock someone for where they want to go to school. Uf he was announcing from GC or somewhere in Olney, and picked somewhere, I’d have no problem. Just don’t do go out of your way to do in in CP, from what I’ve read he is surrounded by people with their heads on strait and I hope they have advised him to avoid pulling a Logan-El.

Oh man do i like this.
Is this where I am supposed to say “this”? That doesn’t seem right…
HAHAHAHHAHAHAH - Florida Page. Diggs to MD
If the report from the Washington Post is true then we will miss out on another top notch recruit. Stefon Diggs appears to be ready to spurn the top notch programs of Auburn, Florida, and Ohio State to stay home and play for Maryland, who by the way, had a horrible season. The announcement was expected to come tomorrow evening but that might not be happening any more.
I was worried about this happening. We lost Hamilton to similar circumstances and now it appears the same thing will happen with Diggs. I posted in a thread here last week that I thought he would choose Florida, with Maryland finishing second, Ohio State 3rd, and Auburn 4th. Flip the first 2 teams and it appears that’s what it’s coming down to. Again, no reports are true until final but this is the Washington Post not some random small town source in the middle of North Dakota. If this is indeed true this will be the 800th time in the Will Muschamp era that we finish 2nd to a really good prospect. I know a lot of AA’ers think that’s a good thing, but I don’t. I think it sucks. What does second place get you exactly? Well, it gets you as much as 80th place does, which is absolutely nothing.

Logan-El'd
If this turns into a Logan-El situation, I’ll be pissed. He even went so far as to invite Friedgen’s wife to the announcement.
THAT was one of the most classless moves ever
If Diggs chose anyone but MD from Looneys, it would also be classless. And he would certainly open himself up for criticism and it would be warranted, IMO.
by Dave Tucker on Feb 10, 2012 10:34 AM EST up reply actions
I think the difference is
Diggs has/is really torn about where he wants to go and Logan-El knew he was going to sitr the pot.
I have to think that those close to Diggs, know how the Logan-El situation went down, and are advising him against doing anything like that.
In the end I guess only he knows what he will do.
...and threw a Maryland hat on the floor.
I didn’t like how Jordan Steffy announced either, but was happier with the result.
Put on a Michigan State jersey...
so he could like the MSU QB, only at Maryland.

Here's a friendly piece of advice
I got really mad this week when I spoke with Jason King of ESPN on twitter and was telling him that Turgeon wasn’t whining about the Henson dunk in his post game press conference, since I was in the room and heard it. King attacked me personally and said I wasn’t credible as a writer because you can’t be a fan & writer. It ticked me off, until SVP sent me this tweet:

If we land Diggs, we really should adopt this. Who cares what other fans think? Diggs clearly thinks we’re the best. Leave it at that. We shouldn’t let anything else matter. Just thought I’d throw that out there for everyone to consider.

How awesome for Diggs to be able
to announce at a bar at the school he is choosing. I don’t care if you think he loves the attention… He should. That would be the greatest feeling ever. Put on a hat and then watch people go ape shit because he wants to be a Terp.
I see a recruiting tool in the works. Official LOI Day in front of Looney’s every year. How cool would that be. Block party style.
Uh-oh
Diggs on Twitter:
@Marseanbaybee: Contrary to what you hear I have not made a decision . A lot of people going be mad at me . But oh we’ll gotta make the best decision for me
And more
Even my own city might be mad at me
Man, I hope he is playin’
Don't read too far into the tweets
He is doing it to try to put some suspense into it, he likes the attention.
A lot of people are already mad at him (OSU and Auburn fans we’ve seen lash out) for not choosing there school, that is how recruiting goes for 5 stars.
The “even my own city might be mad at me” just makes it appear that all schools are up in the air. As many have posted, the most classless thing that he could do is to change his venue from CSN to Looneys and then not announce for MD.
Hes gotta be playing.It just be idiotic for him to announce at Looney’s in CP and go to Florida or somewhere other then MD without expecting a riot or something

I’m a grown man. I can’t justify driving 90 minutes to a bar in College Park to watch a teenager announce where he’s going to play football. I want to, but I can’t.
But those who are students in CP – you absolutely should be there. The place is going to be nuts. Things like this don’t happen every day. It’s something you’ll never forget. Fifteen years from now, when you’re grown, you’ll be telling your kids that you were there when Stefon Diggs became a Terp, the day everything changed.

by UMTerp2010 on Feb 10, 2012 11:29 AM EST via mobile reply actions
Honestly
If I’m Diggs the choice is easy:
Choice 1: Go play in the SEC, be just another great athlete in a league full of them. Get absolutely destroyed on every play by bigger, faster, harder hitting defenses than anywhere else in college football. Higher chance of injury as a result of those defenses. Be stuck in the depth chart behind 4 and 5 star talent. Wait atleast a year or 2 before making a serious impact.
Choice 2: Go play in the ACC close to home for a school that desperately needs elite athletes at skill positions. Step on the field from day 1 and have a chance to log major playing time / statistics as a freshman. Go up against defenses that are a little more forgiving and thus will give you the ability to display that elite athleticism while having a better chance to avoid injury. Become a kid who stayed home and turns into a legend.
Also with choice #2
Got to a school that’s had three receivers in the past 6 years drafted in the first 2 rounds of the NFL draft. Yes, I’m counting Vernon Davis as a receiver. Tight ends do catch the ball…

I think this line of thinking
is a bit flawed. I don’t think elite level kids are hoping to go against softer defenses for fear of injury. Do they want to be the best at their position? Reach the league the most prepared? I don’t think that being the best player on a team day one is really the best route to that but again, this isn’t all about NFL projection, playing time or defenses. It’s about where he feels the most comfortable. If that is Maryland, by all means I wish the kid the absolute best but his decision process will most certainly not revolve around being the man on day one and playing soft defenses. Besides, if he is the man day one, he is going to have more touches from day one. Injuries aren’t about how good defenses are, it’s about how many hits you are going to take. It’s all moot because kids can’t think about that stuff and definitely don’t put that in their mind w/r/t recruitment, that’s crazy.
Re: players in the draft, every school can point to that, especially if you are talking about UF, AU and OSU.
by Onestatewest on Feb 10, 2012 12:39 PM EST up reply actions
Ok
I hear what your saying. My point is— have you seen an SEC game lately? It’s a different sport. I guess my thinking is at a place like Maryland he will stand out, at a place like Auburn or FL he is just another kid which elite talent. The injury thing is a lesser matter than I doubt he’s taking into account, but from my perspective seeing the difference in speed, hitting, strength, overall brutality of SEC football, it’s hard to ignore.
I agree that he will have the ability to shine
bright and early on at MD but I think that has it’s distinct drawbacks. Getting doubled, having no real competition at his position are not automatically conducive to getting better. When people say that there is depth elsewhere, it’s one thing if the team is absolutely loaded at a position but just having other great talent around isn’t a bad thing, nor is it a deterrent to a lot of kids. That competitiveness often breeds growth and success. Again, the things that fans (like me of course) come up with for so called “pro-con” lists w/r/t recruiting destinations, generally don’t play much of a factor at all. It’s more like “my mom wants me to go there, I like the coaches”. Great get for MD (which it certainly appears to be the case) no matter the circumstances.

Now ESPN has this tagline:
“ATH Stefon Diggs, No. 13 in the ESPNU 150, is set to choose his college on Friday and it looks like it’s coming down to Maryland and Florida, with the Terps surprisingly in the lead.”
So, even ESPN’s reporters are hedging their bets. The story is behind a paywall.
by Terpmenacestan on Feb 10, 2012 11:50 AM EST up reply actions
The article is about Diggs final four schools and a brief recap of their chances
with him. It also mentions when he took official visits and who was recruiting him basically. It adds that MD had the last visit. It says that Maryland looks like it could be the leader now.
So I did a street view of Looneys
I had no idea it was across the street from Maryland’s campus. I hope he has an exit plan if he doesn’t pick Maryland. Traffic around route 1 at that time is really unforgivable.
It isn't just across the street from Maryland

He has done a lot of good for the program in the past 3 months. Give credit where credit is due.
At some point the Edsall bashing should end though.
What else do you want him to do? He hired Lox and Stewart, he’s pulling in the best player in the state, he’s taken the abuse and answered tough questions from Andy Pollin/Steve Czaban, he’s building something special here, he preaches responsibilty and ethics to his kids. Honestly, all of the hate thrown his way has endeared him to me even more. He’s like Tom Coughlin, all the fans and media were hating him, but he got his players to buy in, and he ends up winning.
Now, if he ends up making bone-headed coaching moves next Fall, by all means, criticize him. But last year seems like eons ago, especially with all of this momentum building. I don’t see how you could still hating at this point.

Agreed
My original comment was part sarcasm
Also
You must not have paid attention to the recruiting process for Diggs, we were dropped back in November. It wasn’t until Locks came in and started to clean up the cluster fuck Edsall made, that we got back in the hunt for Diggs. Get a clue, then talk.
First of all, let's wait to give anyone credit until this is in the bag.
Because, you know, it’s not… yet.
Second, Edsall has done extraordinarily little to earn the benefit of the doubt around here. Have the past few months been an improvement? Of course. If he made the decision to bring in Locksley, then he deserves praise. But most of the good feeling surrounding the program at the moment has stemmed directly from Locksley’s presence. Prior to that, there was no indication that we were anywhere near crawling out of the swamp Edsall dragged us into.
But finally, get the negativity out of this thread. Go have a beer and relax – enjoy what is shaping up to be a great night.
I'm with ya on the last part.
But factor in the fact that KA was the one who wanted Crowton hired, not Edsall. Also, they swung and missed on Randy Shannon for DC last year, and only promoted Bradford as a desperation move, because of the timing of the season. There are several reasons last year was a disaster, and yes RE shares in some of the blame. But if you are going to fundamentally change the football program(which a new coach has every right to do), then you can expect some bumps along the way.
I think there was a consensus around here that Ralph had peaked(I still love the big guy, btw), and we wanted more, wanted a different approach to recruiting, etc. I’m not a huge RE cheerleader, by any means, but constant harping at my HC who is making obvious moves of improvement after his FIRST year, will make me quite defensive of him.

Yeah, I don't really disagree with anything you're saying.
And I’ve noted that, although I still have reservations, I’m fully supportive of the efforts he’s been making recently.
I can't speak for others, but I'm kidding around
I’m not on the fire Edsall bandwagon. I was joking more about the fact that whenever we seem close or something’s a done deal, something gets messed up (see: Miller, Sean and Leach, Mike). Definitely not hating on Edsall, just trying to keep a light mood until the announcement. I think Edsall deserves a chance to prove himself next season with the new coordinators.

IF we get Diggs
This will be the most hyped team ever coming off a 2-10 season. This committment could be the best thing to ever happen to Edsall, last season gets put in the past and everyone forgets about it. But on the flip side, if Edsall cant succeed with Diggs, then he’s in for a real shit storm.

Word on twitter
is that the signing event is going to last three hours with the announcement coming at the end. How do you milk a collge announcement for three hours.
Also does he realize how drunk and rowdy the crowd is going to be by then?
if that lasted 3 hours and he committed elsewhere
I’d fear for his life with all those drunk college kids there
can Diggs even be in a bar at 9?
I would think they would have to kick him out at some point since he’s under 21.
But who am I kidding, it’s CP. He won’t be the only 18 year old in the bar.

Not sure if anyone has heard this or not...
but some football player named Stefon Diggs might be commiting to Maryland tonight.
Next step
Get Ohio State, Florida and Auburn on the out-of-conference schedule, then watch Diggs light them up.
I'll pass on that
For at least another 2-3 years. Possibly Florida, only because they aren’t that strong on offense at the current time.
No offense
but none of those teams would schedule a home and home with Maryland. MD would need to do a one-off at their place for it to happen. But hey, MD could make like 750k for each game, that’s not a bad deal.

Stay grounded guys
No one wants to see Diggs as a Terp any more than I do and I am excited like everyone else. Consider he gets to play for Locks, and with pals from HS, instant star in the ACC with the best media coverage in the country at Maryland where his play on the field will be highlighted. No greater place to get to the NFL than from Maryland. Also his Mom and friends can see him play every game. Throw in a good education and pick a location in College Park to announce and everything points to Maryland. Right? I want to think that he commits to Terps tonight but I can’t get past that he walked away from Randy at the UNC game without so much as a hand shake or head nod. What was up with that? Hope it was staged to keep everyone guessing. Add the “shock the world” and other comments together and I just don’t know. I am going to stay grounded until I know. Go Terps!!!

City council hates bars. They make it very, very hard to open one. And they’re thrilled when Thirsty Turtle (formerly Terrapin Station) get shut down. Granted, that place was a shithole, but at least it had dollar pitchers. And you could get in without an ID.
I think those two facts are related.
The “not needing an ID to get in” and the “shutting down Thirsty Turtle” I mean.
TT was the only bar I’ve been to where I felt I needed to check the ID of the girl I was hitting on to make sure she was OVER 18.
Not only do they make it hard...
…but when one of the people who approves liquor licenses in the city has ownership stakes in 2 of those bars, it’s the biggest conflict of interest ever. I loath the city of College Park. They get mad because a college IS their city. You live in COLLEGE Park! School was there first!
They really need to learn to embrace the school
Ann Arbor is a perfect example of how a town embraces the university. One of the best I’ve been to.

It's pretty good
Nice, clean sports bar, but not much room if its crowded. More of a laid back atmosphere than your typical college party bar. Definitely a solid pregame spot for basketball games due to close proximity.
CP needs 10 bars, mininum
Only one I ever went to was the Fe. At least it had a more laid back attitude, places to sit, and you could usually have a conversation (as long as it wasn’t toooo late.)
No offense to the frat/sorority Terps on here, but Cornerstone and Bentley’s just weren’t my thing. CP really needed/needs some good variety in the bar scene.
Franklin’s, about 1 mile down Rt. 1, is a nice change of pace with a great selection. But because of the distance, students don’t really go there
Pretty good beer, occasionally great food.
Definitely a great spot for the over-21 crowd.
'Vous and The Cellar were all we ever needed.....
OK, Bentleys and Sante Fe, too. Man, I loved have 4 bars within 300 yards of Talbot dorm…

No, the signing period doesn't end until like April
He could still sign an aid agreement instead if he really wants to, but I’d assume it’s an LOI.
still room?
im trying to come as fast as i can but my buddy is taking forever

The article about Diggs choosing UMD has been removed from WaPo website…why would they do that?
Nah bro, "Diggs poised to pick Terps" is still up.

Am I the only one
That doesn’t buy that he’ll make his decision around 9? I know they have a good source on that. But there is also information about there about a football awards dinner at 7 that is honoring him, and I find it hard to believe he would miss it entirely.
https://twitter.com/#!/MikeCornejo/status/168081627354906624
And that’s nothing new. Before we knew about Looney’s we just assumed he would be making it after that dinner somewhere.
I also can’t see him up there for three hours. What could he possibly have planned? I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a lot closer to the 6 estimate that we had before, but that might just be wishful thinking.
I'm guessing there are some wires getting crossed
That is, people are seeing the Diggs commitment at 6, then this event that’ll run till 9, and they’re guessing that they’re related. Truth be told, I don’t know that they aren’t. I’m just along for the ride. But I’d be very surprised if nothing happened until 9.
Did some investigation
The Pigskin Club thing is at 7 PM in DC
That's what I'm saying
No way he blows off a dinner honoring him just to mess around on stage at Looney’s for three hours. Then again, I think would kind of love it if he did.
What if he blows off Looneys
Woahhhhhhhhh
BTW, the Stefon Diggs Commitment Itinerary thing reminded me of this

Nationwide Respect for Maryland
This doesn’t relate directly to Diggs but more to recruiting and our nationwide profile. I really have a bone to pick with ESPN and there choice of games for ESPN classic. Every time Maryland plays UNC or DUKE they show an old game from 5/10/15 years back.
Every time though they pick a game where Maryland loses. This has been going a couple years now. Just something I noticed it bothers me every year I see them do it again.
its bullshit
how about showing the gold rush 2010 game?
You cray
That was one of the biggest regular season games in all of college basketball that season. Its definitely a classic…

I think Turge should just walk in the locker room. Tell them to play their ass off and do w/e the fuck they want on offense
It would be much more effective than you’d think. Just gotta get them really hyped to play REALLY good defense

http://maryland.247sports.com/Article/The-Evolution-of-Stefon-Diggs-41693
Diggs attended Maryland’s season-opening win over Miami and had a phone call setup with head coach Randy Edsall for last Thursday night. Diggs likes what he sees from the first-year coach, and after attending the first game believes the program is headed in the right direction.
"He came in and made a lot of changes," Diggs said. "He’s real disciplined. He doesn’t play a lot of games. He showed it in that Miami game, and they didn’t have a couple players play, It was nice seeing them play, and Coach Edsall just executed. Danny O’Brien is a great quarterback. He has a good head, strong arm, was an all-ACC quarterback last year, so they surprised me a lot."
Off topic...
anyone know whatever happened to Sunny Odogwu?

Okay, Pe' post is now up
Let’s keep this thread free of negative, MVPe-related vibes. This is a good vibes thread.
Wait
Is this televised anywhere? I know it’s not on CSN anymore but did they move it someplace else?
First time poster...
First time poster here, love the blog. Don’t want to be negative at all, but i was thinking:
So Diggs is attending for another pre-scheduled event correct? What if the only reason he is doing this at Looneys is because he already had to be there and figured he would just knock it out. Although, i tend to believe that he and the ones around him are smart enough to know if he is not committing to UMD then that’s a terrible idea. I dont know, im just worrying be prepared for the worst; we have seen this so many times before just not at a bar on the UMD campus…
The pre-scheduled event
Is not at Looneys
Word out of Looney's
(I was about to head down there, am not now)
is that Diggs isn’t showing up til around 8 or a little after. I’m just hoping I can get in before being carded. So, the announcement probably WILL be at 9.
Looks like the “6 pm” thing was a way for Looney’s to get some extra business.
Lame if true, but the times don't really add up, do they?
I thought that other event went from 7-9. If he doesn’t even show up until after 9 … this wait will be unbearable.
would make sense
since the original announcement wasn’t until 10pm
I'm hoping
he shows up for an hour of the GC event and gets to Looney’s right around 9. But I also just found out the the bar started carding at 5. So…there goes that.
My Source's
source said that his source, who by the way is a major stud from the Pentagon, claimed that they tapped Stef’s cell and he’s supposedly gonna wear ninja turtle boxers to the announcement

BTW
Next years number 4 recruit in the nation (Kendall Fuller, according to Rivals) plays for Good Counsel. Can we recruit the whole team?
3 bro's went to VaTech
Going to be REALLY hard to get him away from VaTech.
Also Auburn just offered a Good Counsel junior WR. Don’t know his name but if he’s good enough for Aubrun, he’ good enough for me.
Woot.
History in the making in more ways than one.
With that said, I’d much rather have Diggs’ commitment rather than the FanPost record. But that’s just me, perhaps Ben feels otherwise.

Breneman is pretty fast for a TE
But Fuller is not a burner. Rivals has him at 4.5
Taivon Jacobs looks so awesome
He and Jonathan Allen are at the top of my 2013 wishlist. Then Breneman. Then O’Daniel.
I’m not really counting fuller, he’s not that likely.
no
Not being covered on Television. Stick to twitter for real time updates if you can’t make it to Looneys. I’m sure a few posters on here are on their mobile apps though that can keep us updated
Not to be a downer
But has anyone consider how awful today will be if Diggs goes somewhere else and Pe’ tears up his knee? Borderline catastrophic

Location for my signing 8150 Baltimore Ave College Park Md 20740
Can't say
He doesn’t wanna be labeled a blabbermouth
Someone at Looney's needs to take a video of when he actually commits
and put it on youtube so we can see what actually happens
unless he commits somewhere else
then we could just watch “2012”, it’ll pretty much look like that.

Per @KristenKenny, the same person who broke the original news
Two guys to follow on twitter that are live tweeting at the event
https://twitter.com/#!/Jakob_Engelke
https://twitter.com/#!/PaulTenorio
There is sure to be more so add them with a reply here and I’ll follow them
Its funny what some fans will say when a recruit they want is rumored to commit somewhere else
This is from a FL fan
The tweets scream drama queen. His actions at the UF camp scream drama queen.
I personally hope he goes to MD and never wins a damn thing which is what is likely to happen at this point. FL is loaded at WR next year and we’ll get ours then.
Hahaha
At first I thought those were your thoughts under it and I was like “never wins a damn thing…?”
lol
I think the same guy posted If he goes to MD he can kiss his NFL dreams goodbye. Some ppl just get really salty lol
If I was part of that board I would have put that
I think he’s just butt hurt
yeah lets ignore that we're producing the second most NFL players
behind Miami.

More Watkins than Tavon, from what I've heard, but he's very tough to compare
Elite, elite talent. Who would you compare Watkins to before Watkins? That’s a tough question. So it is with Stefon. He’s probably a bit smaller than Watkins, but may be even more dangerous with the ball in his hands.
Watkins in all his glory last season
Had a case of the “droppies”
Stefon has much better hands coming out of high school.
