Maryland made 'Wanted' poster for prized recruit

Stefon Diggs is a star wide receiver who is down to Florida, Ohio State, and Maryland. Randy Edsall, the head coach of Maryland, had these wanted posters made up to help recruit Stefon Diggs. This is a hilariously bad example of how insane college football is sometimes but then again Maryland is known for their team captains choosing the color of their uniforms before games. Let...

Maryland turned heads with their controversial helmets Monday, but it looks like the design is a ripoff from a women's roller derby team.

CROWD CONTROL

Maryland tries to color coordinate stadium

We've all seen white outs or black outs - when fans are asked to all wear the same color to a game. To the University of Maryland, that's extremely too elementary. The Maryland administration is asking fans to wear one of the school's eight four colors to their first home game on Monday, September 5th. The game, an 8:00pm kick against the University of Miami, will be televised...

A.J. Francis Hears from Compliance Director After Tweeting Rap Lyrics

A.J. Francis is a defensive lineman at Maryland and he was dubbed by DC Sports Bog the best tweeting athlete in the DC-area. One of his tweets this weekend apparently caught the eye of the school’s compliance director, as the Bog pointed out: .bbpBox82454254140403712 {background:url(http://a2.twimg.com/profile_background_images/199636734/F761052.jpg) #9AE4E8;padding:20px;}...

Maryland hires Locksley as offensive coordinator

Maryland has hired former New Mexico coach Mike Locksley to be its offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Locksley was fired in September after two-plus tumultuous seasons with New Mexico, during which the Lobos went 2-26 and he was suspended for getting into a fight with an assistant. He joins a program coming off a 2-10 season under first-year coach Randy Edsall. Before...

Ralph Friedgen can “care less about Maryland”

Former head coach Ralph Friedgen was terminated last year despite being named ACC Coach of the Year and producing gunslinger Danny O’Brien, the ACC Rookie of a year. The former Terrapin is finally speaking out on the topic of Maryland and needless to say, it’s not pleasant. Friedgen appeared on Baltimore’s WNST with host Glenn Clark early this week. During an exchange of questions...

Police: Maryland's Twine charged

Maryland Athletics Hits A Rough Patch

This is a tough time to be a fan of the Terps.  Head football coach Randy Edsall, coming to the program off of a BCS bowl appearance last year at UConn, notched a win in his first game out of the gate, against Miami, and then watched his team lose 10 of the next 11, with the lone win coming against Towson.  The ripple effect of this past season is already being felt (no doubt due...

Maryland Terrapins Unveil Shocking Uniforms In Season Opener

The Maryland Terrapins vs. Miami Hurricanes season opener was a shocker — all because of the uniforms that the Terps wore. The uniforms were designed make the Terps look “faster, lighter and ready for battle” with pants “built with muscle-boosting, core-stabilizing technology.” They certainly made a bold statement that didn’t seem to go over well.

Is Maryland’s New Helmet Design A Knockoff?

The controversy over the Maryland Terrapin’s new uniforms has heated up. That’s because the helmets the Terps are wearing look a lot like the helmets a Baltimore roller derby team wears.

Towson hangs tough, still falls to Maryland 28-3

Playing in-state rival Maryland for the first time ever, Towson was eager to put its best effort forward against the Terps. For one half, the Tigers did just that, trailing 7-3 after 30 minutes. But they could not execute well enough to play with Maryland for a whole game. Danny O'Brien threw for two second half touchdowns and Maryland's defense forced four second half turnovers...

A.J. Francis cuts Maryland new uniform promo

I know some people out there are skeptical about Maryland’s new football uniforms, but as A.J. Francis says in this WNST promo, “we’re probably gonna be cleaner than you’ve ever seen us in your life.” That means clean as in filthy, not clean as in well-scrubbed. Filthy as in sick, not as in muddy. Sick as in slick, not as in bed-ridden. Etc. Read full article >>

If Ralph Friedgen hasn’t burned his Maryland degree, he has burned his bridges

Maryland fans didn't seem entirely convinced of the wisdom of letting Ralph Friedgen go last December, on the heels of one of the best decades in school history and a dramatic single-season turnaround from 2009 to 2010 that made Friedgen the ACC's Coach of the Year. They seem even less convinced after getting skunked by Temple(!) last week in their own stadium, 38-7, to fall...
