Have we ever been ranked in the last 5 years?

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

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.

Not too surprising here, a good amount of transfers starting for the Scarlet Knights, including several from nearby Temple and Boston College. Check out how these teams stack up across the board at the link below.

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.

Kevin Willard looks back on winning the Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off and also looks ahead to facing Juan Dixon and Coppin State on Friday.

Watching the Louisville Cardinals play Arkansas out in Maui and they are absolutely terrible. Only scored 7 points halfway through the first half. Maryland is likely going to be a heavy favorite, even on the road.

In other news, both Mitchell twins have already seen the floor for Arkansas. Makhi has a baseline block.

Here’s your final depth chart of the regular season ahead of Saturday’s game versus Rutgers. I don’t see any changes from last week.

The last and winning drive by Michigan. 4th and 3 and receiver runs a blatantly obvious pick and blocks two DBs allowing catch for first down. Questionable defensive PI gives them a chunk of yards. Then they review a called catch on the field in which the replay clearly shows the tip of the football hitting the ground and pushing the ball further into the receiver’s hands. Bottom line, UM wins on an easy FG. They really want UM and OSU in the playoffs.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. - Former University of Maryland football standout and NFL All-Pro, Shawne Merriman, will hold his annual "Lights On" Foundation Coat Drive leading up to Saturday’s Maryland-Rutgers football game at SECU Stadium.

The coat drive, now in its 20th year, will benefit the homeless and United States military veterans. This year’s donation recipients will include Helping Up Mission serving Maryland’s homeless population and MCVET (Maryland Center for Veterans Education and Training) supporting our nation’s veterans. Both organizations are dedicated to assisting the most vulnerable populations in Maryland.

“Reaching 20 years of collecting coats for the less fortunate is a huge accomplishment and I couldn't be happier to continue to work with The University of Maryland as we make a collective impact in the Maryland area,” says Merriman. “The coat drive has always been special to me because I know how it feels to not have a coat during Maryland’s brutally cold winter weather. To commemorate 20 years of providing warmth to our community, I want to set the bar high and bring in a record number of donations.”

Volunteers will be on hand to collect gently used coats, hats, scarves and other cold weather gear at designated entrances of SECU Stadium starting at 10:30 a.m. Collection will end at 2 p.m.

Collection bins will be set up at Gates I, F and C.

Initiated while still a student at Maryland, Merriman's Lights On Foundation has collected more than 38,000 coats over the past 19 years to benefit communities in the local Maryland and DC areas as well as those affected by past disasters such as Hurricane Sandy in 2012 and most recently during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Merriman's Lights On Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life for youth and to help the homeless. Merriman donates time, money and other resources throughout the country by increasing opportunities for children to lead healthy and fulfilling lives through his foundation. By building corporate partnerships within the community, Merriman is able to provide financial assistance to projects focusing primarily on helping the homeless and children in need.
