The Eagles are led by former Terps All-American and national champion Juan Dixon, who is in his 6th season at the helm for Coppin.

Coppin State enters Friday's game versus Maryland on a two-game skid, having lost at Marshall and most recently at Towson on Tuesday. The Eagles also gave Georgetown a scare earlier this season, taking Patrick Ewing's team to overtime before finally falling to the Hoyas by a score of 99-89.

The Eagles are led by a senior point guard who's name should be familiar to Terp fans. Penn State transfer Sam Sessoms enter's Friday's game in College Park as the nation's 12th-leading scorer, averaging 22.0 points per game. The last time Sessoms played the Terps in College Park, he went off for 17 points in a PSU loss last season. It was the lone meeting between the Terps and Nittany Lions.

Maryland has advantages across the board versus Coppin and as double-digit favorites should be able to put the Eagles away early.

Local 2024 four-star PF Donnie Freeman talks Terps, upcoming visit plans

Travis Graf with an update from 2024 top-25 St. John's (D.C.) four-star forward Donnie Freeman from this past weekend. Terps are squarely in the mix here and he's a top target as the Terps look to continue to add quality bigs. Interestingly, it sounds like Iowa will get an official visit soon. Expect the Terps to remain involved in this one until the end.

STORY

WTF Over.....see link

With college free agency here to stay along with the NIL, the best teams will continue to poach the best players from the middling and lower ranked teams to fill their weaknesses. What a recipe for disaster. It will certainly hurt the QB position. Barny doesn't stand a chance unless he can win, as in beat the poor teams badly, beat the teams on your level, upset a team that is better than you, and play the best of the best competitively. OSU might score 70 points and we may not get any, as in nada, none, or zero. But thats ok if you divest yourself emotionally from this situation, but for those that are all in, well that sucks. We now have two recruiting seasons; one we all know about and the other to keep the better players from getting poached/stolen.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍽🍁

Wishing everyone out in Terp Nation a happy Thanksgiving!

A lot for Terp fans to be thankful for with a football team headed to a bowl game for a 2nd straight year and a basketball team already ranked under first-year head coach Kevin Willard.

Enjoy the turkey, stuffing, adult beverages and more football and basketball on tv than you have time to watch with friends and family.
