Old Stefon Diggs and Wes Brown interview
Best. Out of date quotes. Ever.
Diggs: We go hand-in-hand on the field. It's not Wes Brown. It's not Stefon Diggs. It's Brown & Diggs.
OK, let's play that angle. Are you guys a package deal heading to college? Do you want to play with each other?Diggs: Yes, that's the idea.
Seriously though, read it all. It's a nice piece.
Much like the Harrisons recruitment, there are going to be bigger factors in this one than just Wes and Stefon's friendship ... but I certainly take it over nothing.
After unexpected break from football, Quinton Jefferson happy to join Terps
The forgotten recruit. Quinton Jefferson, Pennsylvania defensive end, was originally a 2012 recruit who had to greyshirt due to an undisclosed medical condition. Matt Bracken reminds us he's still here. I'm guessing he'll have to be converted to an OLB in the 3-4, as he only weighed in at 225 his senior year.
Mark Turgeon won't face further action from ACC over suspension against Miami
Didn't expect any, anyway, but it's nice to get confirmation.
WBB: #9 Terps Cruise Past Boston College
A huge bounceback win, 86-44, over Boston College. I still think this team has legitimate Final Four potential this year.
Sam Cassell Jr. Is ‘Blowing Up’
Went for 40 against Winchendon, apparently, though I have no idea if Winchendon is any good compared to past years (they had Will Barton a few seasons ago). Maryland still needs scorers who can stretch the floor, but there's suddenly a lot more competition for him than we had expected.
Reviewing Maryland's 2007 recruiting class - Washington Times
Patrick Stevens reviews the class from several years ago. In all honesty, it wasn't a bad haul.
Dan Hellie says Stefon Diggs is probably going to Ohio State
Hellie isn't a recruiting guy, so take that with a gigantic dollop of salt. But FWIW.
Looking ahead to national signing day 2013
Kendall Fuller will be tough to top as the area's best talent, but I'd kill for Jonathan Allen and Dorian O'Daniel.
Looking at the top local high school football prospects in the class of 2014
Jalen Tabor(!) at the top, obviously; surprised to see Damian Prince so low, most think he'll be a future five-star.

It sounds great
but these package deals usually breakdown once the rubber hits the road on the recruiting trail.
Semi-Maryland related...
Si.com has a cover story on James Franklin and the recruiting class he put together at Vandy this year.. Oh, what could have been…

Thanks
I now want to kill myself…
Are you there Gary? It's me NYC Terp 05
Ouch. Ow. argh!
And for the record I was never for the HCIW OR JF replacing RF even once he was fired.
But the guy is media savvy – he is a hard guy not to like. And yes, given that I pretty much hate the entire SEC, I will root heartily for his success. Now that is a lesson on how to take over a program and I would invite any and all RE defenders to pick it apart. Not that being a JF appreciator and an RE defender are mutually exclusive. But he’s gone, we’ll never get him back. and no one really wanted him as HC when he was here. So I am going to root for his success (mildly).
r-hgr
QUINTON JEFFERSON'S injury was..........
Trying to break up a fight and got a broken jaw.There was no other ailment physically, that would hinder his progress as our weak-side DE.He will be imho, 6-4 300 man-child who will convert to our anchor STRONG-SIDE DE after next season.
Stefon Diggs
It is like they are out to get you Ben, they know you post positive things.
“Stefon Diggs visit to Maryland seems like a courtesy,” Dan Hellie of NBC4 Washington tweeted. “I’m hearing he’s leading heavily towards Urban Meyer and Ohio State.”
If he picks UMD, I can’t wait to tweet at him “Stefon must have reeeeeaaaaaally enjoyed his courtesy visit”
AND.
No OSU bowl game, and probation…

this is from Stefon's twitter.
“Ohio state a great look Florida a great look auburn a great look .. Although you only can pick one .” Although I dont think we’ll get him, I wont lose hope until there is no talk about MD getting him after he visits here. Every time he visits a school he talks about how much he loved it, if he doesnt talk like that after this weekend, then yea we have no shot
he's visited unofficially at least 5 times already
coming down tomorrow for the UNC game as well, although i think that may be unofficial again, unless his official coincides with Diggs?
Him taking an official this early would be weird. Although I cant confirm it, it almost def. has to be unofficial
by Maryland1206 on Feb 3, 2012 11:36 AM EST up reply actions
I'm going 99% it is unofficial
but still, who takes 6 unofficial visits to a school they don’t like? I think we have a more than legit shot with Brennemen. If there is one thing MD turns out well for the NFL, it is TE, LB and Defensive backs.
And I've already reminded AB about that :)

Good bye
Desmond Kearse.
Just dismissed from the team due to Academic problems.
I’d do a proper fan post, but I’m on the phone.
I like Turtles!

Turge
If you watched the game, when everything happened and he was ejected, in real time you could see Turge mouth the words “you fuc*ing p#ssy” to the ref. At least Turge got his money’s worth on the ejection.

tried a quick google search and couldn't find it
probably need someone to watch a replay of the game and pull a still shot from that moment
And he said he thought it was a "quick technical"
Be surprised to see any refs not T-up a coach after saying that.
lol yeah, did he say it after the first though?
i am willing to bet he called him that after the first T. but i haven’t seen the replay.
Told you boys.
That’s how they do it at AY and EM!!!! YEEEE HAWWWW
GOOD GOD
“One other note in the Turgeon-Williams comparison: it took Turgeon 21 games to pick up his first technical foul coaching the Terps. Williams got T’d up early in his very first game by former ACC official Duke Edsall, the older brother of Maryland football coach Randy Edsall.”
Julian (Baltimore, MD)
In all seriousness, can Maryland be a serious contender for a Final Four appearance in the next couple of years?

Mark Turgeon is doing a good job putting together the pieces. Stoglin, Howard, Len, that’s a good start. I think he will have Maryland in the hunt in the ACC ifyou give him some time. The ACC has had a good recruiting year and will be stronger from top to bottom in the future. I think you will hear from the Terps. Contender for Final Four? We will have to see.

Gattuso now also Maryland’s assistant head coach
