Maryland Basketball (some football) recruiting news (Shaq, Layman Commits!)

Dammit. Oh well, there are others. Unfortunate though. Turgeon needs to get back on the trail.

Roddy Peters and Rysheed Jordan are our focus now. Two sizzling PGs.

[BRAVEONAWARPATH]

There are rumors that Peters has soured on MD.

Kansas and Xavier are supposedly the favorites.

Ugh. And ugh again.

[BRAVEONAWARPATH]

I still think we have a chance with Peters but we better get on it quick.

He's visiting UCLA this weekend and will commit when he comes back.

[abdcskins]

We need a PG really bad. Howard is the only one on our roster and he's coming off surgery. At least he's a junior. Stoglin leaving hurt. Faust and Allen are SGs, I didn't like seeing Faust play the point last year he really struggled with bringing the ball up and handling in general. Cassell Jr. not being eligible sucks.

[BRAVEONAWARPATH]

I read many interviews where the twins said they wanted to be different and forge thier own identities.

I guess that wasn't the case....but I can't really blame them for choosing UK.





It definitely puts Stefon Diggs' choice of MD in a different light. He also said he wanted to be a leader and that's what he did/doing.

At least we fought for a top player(s) this time, im good with that. Better than the Gary years where he didnt bother.

I like the work Turgeon is doing

He was successful at A&M and he carries on success here

Good for him

[pjfootballer]

Twins going to "one and done" university. They'll go pro after their first year. Looks like Calipari could offer them more than we could-- Cold Hard Cash!!

[KingGibbs]

Sucks. KU has become the Yankees of college ball. They are just able to pay more for their players.

[RonArtest15]

The condos at UK probably sealed the deal LOL

[Buford]

bummer they didn't want Maryland. It does speak to wanting to lead and work opposed wanting to follow and have an easier path. Oh well, I guess "Good Luck" to them even though in that situation, they are already handed more than luck. They'll be long gone before violations land on UK and Coach Cal moves on to something else without getting dinged.
