Rushing the court is for much lower level teams beating big name teams and for championships.

Tim,

They can lose in the 1st round of the ACC & NCAA tournament and I won’t be that upset. This season has already given me a great ride!!! Quit being a stick in the mud. Go Terps!! Lets riot at the titty bar right next to Greensboro Coliseum at the ACC tournament when we get rubbed out on Friday!!!

Keep in mind Timmo that Maryland made the NIT in Greivis’s first two years. This team and the current students at College Park haven’t experienced anything like this season. Let em get rowdy.

I have a HUGE problem with fans rushing the court. You’re a ranked team beating another ranked team at home…you’ve won a national title…Yet this is a big deal?

Gimme a break…act like you’ve been there before. That’s why this team hasn’t won sh*t since guys like Blake and Dixon left.

Fans rush the court far too often these days. It’s an absolute joke. Have fun watching the Terps get bumped by the Sweet 16…Vasquez can only carry them so far.

How about when my fratenity was involved in the biggest riot/brawl in Campus history! The Tri-Delts were all screaming as we brawled on their lawn. Long live unruly Terp fans!!!!!

Great points all around.

I don’t have a problem with a bunch of excited undergrads rushing the floor, but I hate the rioting. How did setting couches on fire and flipping cars become the acceptable way to celebrate big wins?

Rushing the court had as much to do with celebrating with our seniors after some previously abysmal seasons and the resulting bad press as it had to do with beating Duke. It wasn’t that long ago that people had been clamoring for Gary’s head. The “act like you’ve been there” rubbish makes sense to an old timer like me but probably doesn’t register with teenage undergrads who were just little tykes in ’02 and have never actually “been there.”

The riots on the other hand are beyond embarrassing.

I pray to the lord above we don’t lay a dinosaur egg at UVA.

Boldin for a 3rd rounder is a no brainer. T.O. would have to come very cheap. The Ravens are one of the “final eight” teams, so they are limited when it comes to signing unrestricted free agents.

Like I said…our fans have no class and sportsmanship. Funny how some things never change. All of the tobacco road fans have such respect for each other and would never act like Maryland fans. I’m not bitter, but am nervous about praising this team for fear of getting hammered.

Pat, how about the T.O to Baltimore rumors? Maybe it will happen after all. Heard that Arizona wants a 3rd rounder for Boldin. What if the Ravens grabbed both?

They chanted “F- Duke” during the timeouts, which prompted the commentators to force conversation to try and cover it up.

Was the crowd chanting F*ck John Sheyer at points in that game or was I hearing things?
