The Maryland Terrapins continued their success on their recruiting trail last week with commitments from 6’7 OT Brian Plummer and 5’11 CB Travon Stott. Stott, a standout at Good Counsel, marked the sixth commitment in the 2016 class for the Terrapins and the third commitment in eight days. Both Plummer and Stott were very close to committing right away after their offers from Maryland and ultimately didn’t take long to announce their college destination. Here are the prospects the Terrapins are looking towards in hopes of continuing their hot streak during the recruiting circuit.
