Maryland has an in-home visit scheduled with Clemson transfer guard Alex Hemenway.
The 6-foot-4 guard spent five seasons at Clemson, but only played in 25 games over the past two seasons due to a foot injury. He started 12 games two seasons ago and averaged 6.9 points, 1.8 boards and 1.1 assists per game. Most importantly, he shot 47% from three with 33 makes in limited minutes. He's 80-for-185 (43%) from beyond the arc over the past three seasons. Basically when he's in the game it is strictly to shoot threes. I'm guessing they got a good look at him down in Asheville, where he scored 9 points in the title game versus Davidson.
He has a visit to Vanderbilt scheduled, while Rutgers and Indiana are also involved.
The good news here is I can now say for sure they have at least one backup plan for Lanier. My guess is there are more, we just aren't privy to who they are yet.
