Collecting ACC Hardware

After an improbable 13-3 ACC regular season record, Maryland’s Greivis Vasquez was voted the ACC Player of the Year and Gary Williams was voted ACC Coach of the Year. Jordan Williams made 1st team All-Freshman and finished second in the voting for ACC Freshman of the Year. It is truly amazing how much things can [...]

Senior Night at Comcast

Before I throw out my two cents on the Maryland/Duke game last night, let me express my opinion on the Terp fans who rushed the court at the end of the game. Non-Maryland fans will certainly criticize Terp fans for rushing the court in a game where they didn’t even beat a #1 ranked team. [...]

When can we give the Terps their due?

Georgia Tech coach Paul Hewitt said that Georgia Tech played their best game of the year against Maryland. I think Oliver Purnell could say the same thing about his Clemson Tigers after their visit to the Comcast Center last night.
The Terps were able to take the Yellow Jackets’ and Tigers’ best shots and answer the [...]

Jordan Williams IS Legit

I don’t want to get too detailed in summarizing Maryland’s 85-66 victory over the Cavaliers last night in the Comcast Center. The Cavaliers got a raw deal by having to play on the road after one day of rest, coming off a tightly contested road game at rival Virginia Tech. Since the Terps were out [...]

I Hate Duke

I didn’t think things could get any worse than the performance the Terps offered at Little John against Clemson two weeks ago. Obviously, I was wrong. Despite having two senior guards with a wealth of ACC experience, the Terps were awful yet again at Cameron Indoor on Saturday afternoon.
Not to make excuses, but it was [...]

An Open Letter to Notre Dame Fans

I was watching the big Notre Dame vs. Cincinnatti Big East battle last night in college hoops when, at the end of the game, the fans started chanting “Brian Kelly, Brian Kelly, Brian Kelly” to which I wanted to respond: “Really”. The reality is that two of the least relevent sports programs in the country [...]

The Best NCAA Center You’ve Never Heard Of

Lurking in the Big South Conference is a man whose name you should know, but you don’t. That’s what makes me so sad. For Radford University fans he is a household name but one that opposing play by play guys have yet to get right. My only hope is that Reggie Miller, Marv Albert & [...]

A 96 Team NCAA Tournament

The NCAA is considering a move to a 96 team tournament format in 2011. NCAA officials are trying to terminate their existing TV contract with CBS in order to provide coverage of the additional games.
I have been on numerous message boards, and the 100% consensus is that this would be a terrible idea. Every college [...]

The Ugliest game in ACC history

In a game that set college basketball back a decade, the Clemson Tigers held on to defeat the Maryland Terrapins 62-53 at Little John Coliseum. The Tigers were without their best perimeter player, Demontez Stitt, but still managed a crucial victory despite shooting only 32% from the floor.
Clemson played like a desperate team trying to [...]

Another Impressive Conference win for the Terps

I am used to losing ten years of my life every time the Maryland Terrapins earn an ACC win, so this recent stretch of domination is unsettling to say the least. Maryland continued it’s torrid start to ACC play by shredding the Miami Hurricanes 81-59 in College Park to move to 4-1 in the conference. [...]
