Maryland football hosted a whole lot of recruits this weekend. Some have already committed, while others are still waiting to announce where they’ll be playing in the fall.
Sunday night, the Terps received commitments from defensive tackles Breyon and Brandon Gaddy and offensive tackle Tyran Hunt.
The Gaddy twins were among many visitors to College Park this weekend (Hunt visited the weekend prior). Here are a few of them:
Auburn commit Calvin Ashley, a five-star offensive tackle who’s teammates at St. John’s (D.C) with Maryland commits Kasim Hill and Cam Spence.

Those were some encouraging tweets, even though recruits tend to say positive things about every place they visit.
But Auburn’s staff was waiting for him when he got home.

From now until Jan. 11 is a recruiting “dead period,” which means all coaches can do is contact players by phone once a week.
See someone we missed? Let us know and we’ll add him in above.

Maryland made the top three for JuCo tight end Sal Canella, along with... Texas and Auburn? Don’t hear those three schools mentioned with Maryland very often.

Maryland men’s basketball plays Jacksonville State today. Here’s our preview.
In our latest podcast we discussed whether or not Maryland basketball can keep winning all of these close games. We also discussed the Quick Lane Bowl.
Navy, the other FBS team in Maryland, lost to Army for the first time in 14 years.
Mark Turgeon said it wouldn’t be “equal opportunity” for playing time for veterans going forward.
