CHRIS TURNER RUMORS & GOSSIP
Stars Don’t Shine Over Terrapin Football
The biggest problem with Maryland Terrapins football this year? No stars were available to make plays for them over the course of the season.
Da’Rel Scott’s broken forearm, Chris Turner’s bad knee, Ralph Friedgen’s mind; all of them have contributed to the malaise hanging over Maryland football. And for a program that has been used to [...]

Pregame: Maryland at Wake Forest
Maryland got a nice win last week, upsetting Clemson 24-21 and (somehow) sitting atop the Atlantic Division with a 1-0 conference record, but still has a long way to go for bowl contention at a 2-3 overall record. But, as Chris Turner said, win through the ACC and they can go to the Orange Bowl; at least they took the first step. But Maryland hits the road for the first time in a...

ATH Debate: Falco & Windsor on Terrapin Football
So we tried something new this week, as I remember how great it was to listen to Falco and Windsor go off on Maryland sports during their run on the Around The Harbor Radio Show on WMUC. I decided to pose my two compatriots a series of questions on Maryland football, to try to get to the root of what’s wrong with Friedgen’s squad as they limp to a 1-3 record going into conference...

Terps updates and notes
Here, before it appears in the paper, are notes from today's media availability:
*The play wasn’t designed for Chris Turner to run.
But, with Maryland ahead of James Madison by eight points in the second quarter, the quarterback pump-faked and took off for the end zone.
Turner’s three-yard score may have came on a busted play – he had no lane to throw – but...

Raiders Show Why They’re the Raiders, Select Biggest WR Bust Heyward-Bey
If there’s one player in this draft that I’m confident will wind up being a bust, it’s Darrius Heyward-Bey. Because Maryland’s quarterback was a local kid from LA, Chris Turner, I saw a good amount of their games and paid attention to what they did. Let me tell you this: I never once remember hearing or seeing Darrius Heyward-Bey, and that’s part of my biggest concern with him.

UVA Stomps Maryland Dopplegangers
Government investigators stormed Maryland's campus late last night, intent on finding the leak from a parallel dimension that is allowing a Bizarro Terps team to take the field twice already this season. There is concern that the Hadron Collider in France sent a microscopic black hole on an oblique angle through the crust, exiting somewhere near Byrd Stadium.blahblahblah The...

A True Test
Clemson came very, very close, but they just couldn't beat the Terps.
You could see the frustration on the faces of Clemson fans as soon as Cullen Harper came up short on a QB sneak. I pitied them for a few brief moments before I realized that my team was going to win today.
I can understand their frustration - Clemson probably should've won today. They had more offense...

IPTAY = I Plan To underAchieve Yearly
I certainly didn't expect the Terps to be 4-1 at this point in the year. After the Middle Tennessee State loss, I figured that 2-3 was all we could hope for. Instead I found myself wondering about trips to Tampa in mid-December.Quick hit thoughts:With a game next week against a terrible Cavaliers team, the Terps should be 2-0 in conference heading into a huge game against Wake...

Do Terrapins Have Talons?
Kudos to InsideCharmCity.com for this hilarious post about Maryland Terrapins back-up-back-up QB Chris Turner, his resemblance to Napoleon Dynamite, and his rocker roots.
