  1. Here's a cool recap from the last time they played in the regular season http://www.testudotimes.com/2008/8/22/598808/9-a-nmaryland-beats-georg They throttled the Terps in 'The Old Spice Classic' in 2008
  2. Game On WUSA9 ‏@GameOnWUSA9 13m13 minutes ago .@umterps to face @georgetownhoyas in men's basketball at Gaviitt Tipoff Games http://on.wusa9.com/1DzleoC
  3. "The draw to return for one more season? According to his brother, it was playing alongside future pros and contending for a national championship. Maryland is projected as a top-five team with Layman back in the fold." Jeff Ermann ‏@Jeff_Ermann 12m12 minutes ago So just how close to declaring for the NBA Draft was #Terps junior Jake Layman? http://bit.ly/1FS1gJX Says kind of the opposite of what many people were speculating, including myself. The flux of talent on next year's squad was an incentive for him to come back, along with his late season struggles.
  4. There's a recap here. Sounds like Marcus Leak had a good day for himself. http://www.umterps.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=29700&ATCLID=210017544 Here's the link to watch online, with your TV provider info: http://www.btn2go.com/game/maryland-spring-football-04112015
  5. "the chimpanzee, however, kept all her sharp eye. Patiently waited until the drone just came a little too close ... Blazing chimpanzee hit increases with the long stick that they hit the body!" The description is in Dutch and loses something in translation. Don't read the stupid comments v - That never gets old
  6. I assume it's like the NBA 3 point contest. 5 racks of balls, 5 balls each rack. 4 regular balls and 1 red, white, and blue ball per rack. Regular balls are worth 1 point. RW&B balls are worth 2.
  7. http://www.csnbaltimore.com/ncaa-maryland-terps/jake-layman-nba-mock-draft-will-return-maryland-senior-season ...from this: "Early odds from Las Vegas give Maryland a 12-1 chance to win the national title, among one of five teams listed with the best odds. NBCSports.com projected Maryland as the No. 3 team in the country in early preseason projections. " And yeah, I think they should change the stadium name. To what, I have no idea. My first thought was something to do with Plank. But maybe name it after some thing instead of someone.
  8. Probably gonna be talking about Layman and Diamond Stone on this Jeff Ermann ‏@Jeff_Ermann 1m1 minute ago IMS Radio is live. http://live.imsradioshow.com Edit: If you did listen and made it through the glitch filled beginning, it got a lot better. They touched on Layman and at least one of the guys seems to think it's 50/50-ish on him declaring. They mentioned that maybe he is worried he may tale a lesser role with the talent coming in, and maybe giving scouts another year to see him "not step up". Just opinions and speculation though. Then they talked about potential guys to fill Layman's place, if that happens, including a couple of potential transfers including Damion Lee or Rasheed Sulaimon. Wait, what? These guys are potentially coming in regardless of Layman's decision, but they think the most likely replacement would be a grad transfer, if I heard correctly. Here's this: http://www.testudotimes.com/2015/4/4/8340041/maryland-basketball-transfers-2015-2014-2013 and this, about Sulaimon, if you want to read about his weird situaution at Duke: http://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/duke/article17332781.html#/tabPane=tabs-b0710947-1-1 I'm pretty sure they said Turgeon recruited Sulaimon when he was at A&M. Next day edit: here's an edited version of the original show, much better: It's in the second player on the page (4.6.15) http://maryland.247sports.com/Bolt/IMS-Radio-Season-Review-Diamond-Stone-Talk-and-More-36661943 Edit: Well, if you mak
  9. I guess you're right pj. He is kind of what he is. I don't see him bulking up tremendously in the offseason. Maybe he could gain more consistency all around. I guess if he goes, he'll be a developmental guy and hope to get playing time way down the road. Maybe being in the system sooner gets him there quicker. I can't imagine him in an actual live NBA game anytime soon, but I'm no expert. Interesting take KH. You're the first person I've seen saying that they hope he leaves. In this article from February, he talks about Chandler Parsons (who he is compared to) and how he feels that his game might fit the NBA better. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/01/sports/jake-layman-is-powering-marylands-basketball-resurgence.html?_r=0 “I feel like his game fits a little more in the N.B.A. than in the college game, and that’s what I feel like,” Layman said of Parsons. “I think I’m a guy that doesn’t have to have the ball in his hands all the time to really make an impact. I feel like I could be one of those guys that hangs out in the perimeter and just shoots 3s and slashes to the basket when he needs to.”
  10. Maybe Layman considering the draft is more serious than was expected. Seems like he could be a low first/early second rounder. I wonder if he thinks he'll take more of a backseat next year and hurt his draft stock, if he stays. Maybe he thinks this could be his best opportunity. Personally, I think I'd want to stay and take a shot with what could be a real contender next year. Guess we'll find out soon. http://maryland.247sports.com/Bolt/Turgeon-We-gotta-get-Jake-Layman-back-in-the-fold-36636635 http://www.csnbaltimore.com/ncaa-maryland-terps/jake-layman-nba-mock-draft-mark-turgeon-comments-may-hint-which-way-leaning
  11. Reminds me of a joke I saw on twitter a while back. I laughed. Josh Howie‏@joshxhowie Was late to my first Fight Club last night so missed the intro rules. Still, Fight Club was brilliant and I'd highly recommend Fight Club.
  12. Getting pretty ugly. And the dreaded "regardless of what happens in this game, Maryland has had a great year", which is true, but never really good to hear a few minutes into the second half.
  13. Aha!, the ladies game is on Bovada, under WNBA of course. Terps getting 21. Let's go! Daddy needs a new pair of UA Mobtown shoes. hmm... so they're saying there's a chance http://www.diamondbackonline.com/sports/article_21613e06-d9b0-11e4-ad1c-5fc0dcc212ca.html -- Welp, stupid me. Thought they would hang closer with them. I'll be damned if they didn't win by 23. Oddsmakers pretty much nailed that.
  14. Testudo Times ‏@testudotimes 3m3 minutes ago Maryland's chances at the Transitive National Championship are hanging in the balance in Indianapolis. TBS, now. Transitive Championship! That's what's on the line here folks.
  15. Tough picking between The Owned Thread and here, but here feels right-er . http://t.co/10Z9JZAprl
  16. Brian McNally ‏@bmcnally14 12m12 minutes ago Counted about 25 teams representing here at Maryland's Pro Day with a little under 50 scouts/coaches/GMs to total. #Redskins w/ 3 scouts.
  17. Brave, please just assume I like all your posts. Thanks for driving this thread. Not sure if this was linked somewhere, but has a look at some potential recruits coming down the pike. http://www.testudotimes.com/2015/3/30/8304435/diamond-stone-maryland-basketball-recruiting-2015-2016-2017 On a side note, it appears Bovada doesn't want any of that ladies bball action.
  18. I was thinking of putting some money on that too, er I mean pretend wagering for entertainment purposes only. What kind of degenerate would bet on women's basketball?
  19. That's what I thought at first too, but then reading some reactions (other than Maryland fans) nobody seemed to think it was odd. I hope they give em a run for their money. Maybe even slay the giant. That would be another incredible feat for Maryland all around in the first year in the Big 10. I think I also read the ladies are the first team from the Big 10 in the final four since 2005.
  20. Yay! My twitter timeline exploded with about 500 people tweeting that out. Can't wait for next season. I saw the lady Terps are 23.5 point dogs to UConn, even being a # 1 seed, on a 28 game winning streak. Guess it's not surprising though.
  21. Hooo Weee that was an ugly first half. The orange and yellow uniforms are hard to look at too. They could wear those for roadside construction
  22. Testudo Times retweeted Glenn Clark ‏@GlennClarkRadio 9h9 hours ago @testudotimes @TestudoDave Shameless plug. Diamond Stone on the show Monday morning at 11. If you'd into that. http://www.glennclarkradio.com/listen/ Highlights: Says no chance he backtracks on decision to commit to Maryland Says Under Armor played no role in decision to commit. Strength and conditioning coach Kyle Tarp was a factor Thinks about the one and done thing a lot. Will take his time when making that decision. Wants to be careful with a decision that will effect his entire life Loved the chemistry of the team and how he thought he would fit well with Dodd, Brantley, and other players Said B1G 10 was not really a factor. He liked Maryland. Would have gone even if in ACC Between now and fall his focus will be on working with Kyle Tarp on getting his body ready. Bigger, stronger, Go Terps Here's the archive: http://www.glennclarkradio.com/2015/03/29/diamond-stone-on-whether-he-could-change-his-mind-if-wisconsin-wins-championship-no-chance
  23. Slow Monday morning at work so I checked it out. Put me back to sleep, and that celebrity judge thing was indeed terrible.
  24. So, anyone finding it hard figuring out who to root for at this point? New conference rival Wisconsin, juggernaut Kentucky, or Michigan State. State or Wisconsin for me. Leaning State just because I respect the hell out of Tom Izzo. B1G baby.
  25. I wasn't really surprised by the strong reaction, especially in this thread. I was mostly just trying to help tone it down a bit and avoid any appearance of name calling, I thought it may have been about to get ugly, and didn't want to see any Woody Allen Sleeper avis up in here banning people. That's all. Probably not my place though. I'm with you 100% on Williams. Who knows what the story of Maryland basketball, and Gary Williams, would be had he not stayed.
