  1. At the end of all this, Haskins has done a service to MD by helping them recruit. If he goes to OSU he will have also created a rivalry. I have a hard time condemning an 18 year old who is faced with a million dollar decision.
  2. Has the MD starting lineup EVER had a worse game? 9-37 from the field.
  3. JTIII is a nice guy who runs a clean program (so far as we know) and is a decent coach. If Georgetown wants to be relevant on the big time basketball scene they need a new coach. I don't think that is their goal.
  4. Not exactly. There are plenty of sports options on the add-ons to Kodi. Finding them in HD is another story. I watched MNF the other night in spanish because it was the best feed. And if you like soccer there are 100s of games from every league every day. Few in HD.
  5. I do not have cable for my downstairs TV, so I figured I would start the "cut the cord" experiment down there. I just bought Amazon Fire TV, which I love. Downloaded Kodi and am blown away by the potential. In essence, for $190 (Amazon Fire TV and Prime) I instantly have 90% of cable (including premiums). If you factor in the expanse of the Kodi add-ons, I have something that exceeds cable by miles. The Holy Grail seems to be finding live HDTV (I already have the networks via antenna). I cannot understand why everyone doesn't do this.
  6. National Center for Atmospheric Research compiled the 19 tracks of the storm, 14 go over DC. 17 have it being a Cat2 when it gets in range. I think we are getting hit.
  7. If you say so, I don't know. I tend not to listen to Coach firing talk until I start hearing the name of a realistic successor. And I mean a big name, because MD has reach the potential level to quit hiring "rising stars". Edit: I'll throw a name out there. Mike Tice. Someone who is an easy sell to kids and Alumni.
  8. Really no point in debating the worth of a HS QB. He is good, big and fast, and chose MD over Bama, FSU and others. Let's not start the hating just yet.
  9. True, and if you can't find a QB who can throw the ball in this era of college football you cannot win. Next year the Terps have a top 5 QB coming in after making do for 10 years. Unless Edsall is despised by his players, unless he is covering up grade issues and discipline issues, unless Kevin Plank comes forward and stops the money stream, I don't see how he can be fired. And I also don't see how not firing Edsall is a bad mark on the entire athletic program.
  10. Anyone still bashing Anderson is stuck in 2010, overall it is certainly top 20 in the nation. Football certainly gets much of the press, but men's basketball, baseball and soccer are top 15 programs.
  11. Truth is Haskins can't get here fast enough. MD hasn't had a decent QB since McBrien and you simply cannot win without one. Edsall is going to get this year and 2 more IMO. His recruiting is starting to shape up and it would be a mistake to change course.
  12. Michigan has to play OSU and MSU every year, so they were put together. MD, Rutgers and PSU are geographic rivals. 3+3 = 6. I can see them changing this in years to come.
  13. MD has already started usurping VT in local recruiting, WVU is next. I doubt the Terps will ever outrecruit PSU. MD joining the B10 is the worst thing that could have happened to VT and WVU. Once Beamer retires from VT, and it will be soon, MD is going to be rolling in local recruits.
  14. Rainbows and Unicorns - 9 Optimistic - 7 Reality check - 5
  15. Series could be over right now. 7 footer on the bench at the end. Wittman has been abysmal.
  16. Sulaimon is an odd case. Maybe he just did not fit in at Duke or maybe he is a hardhead who did not listen or go to class. Kryszewski never said much about it, but being the 1st player to be dismissed is not a badge of honor. I wouldn't touch him.
  17. While I am not a JT fan, he was the one that put GTown on the map. He never did anything that would not benefit his program and playing MD was of no benefit to him. Playing MD in 1993 was a move to resurrect the program and no one had a clue who Joe Smith was before that game. After the game, MD was on the map, and Gtown was officially back as the #2 area team.
  18. May 31 deadline for 2016 Final Four (Houston) ticket applications.
  19. NCAA Men's is no different. 12 teams have won 41 of the last 50 titles.
  20. Markelle Fultz is a kid that really stands out. Late blooming, uber athlete that is still growing and is a certain early 1st rounder if things progress as they should. Currently off the radar for some teams like Duke and Kentucky, but won't be for long.
  21. I find it interesting that Diamond Stone is the "highest recruit ever" by MD when they have had so many All Americans and a National Player of the Year. Obviously there are some flaws in the evaluation process.
  22. LOVED Vasquez. He was much like Walt Williams in the respect that they were basically the only guys on the team and were unstoppable. Both were 2nd team AA and both should have been 1st team.
  23. He needs to shoot about a million NBA 3's over the next few months. He really needed to look more for the 3 at Maryland.
  24. The school probably can't stand her and this gives them a great reason to part ways. And Huggins won't do anything about it. What a black eye on really good win.
  25. WVU outmatched a team that goes 7 deep at best, when their point guard missed 1/2 the game, and still it wasn't a blowout. No slight to WVU, but MD upgrades at nearly every position and bench next year.
