    Syracuse or Maryland?

    And I agree Clemson is NOT a blue blood. Hence they are in Tier 2. They can and mostly likely will fall off after Dabo. Very hard to have many coaches keep it going. I do think if Maryland plays it right that they can move up and hang in games like Texas or OSU...like they have already...

    Syracuse or Maryland?

    Blue bloods take a LONG time to build. USC, OSU, OU, Bama etc. Clemson is simply not a blue blood but a current national power. Tiers: 1) BLue blood-- Bama, USC, OSU, OU etc. 2) National Power-- this tier is where the third tier can jump into. I include the likes of Clemson...

    Syracuse or Maryland?

    I agree MD can make it exciting. I do think NFL talent like Anthony McFarland and other RBs is hard to ignore for any team. Urban Meyer just said that MD as a program has enough talent to beat anyone in the country (like they pretty much beat OSU and he noted that) and was raving about the...

    Syracuse or Maryland?

    I think it is WAY too early for Locksley and Maryland to catch up to the elite of the division or make consistent noise. It takes 3 years min for even VERY solid coaches to build up a program. But he is at least waxing some similar tier teams. Did anyone really expect Babers to lose by 40...

    The real test for Rutgers is Maryland

    Maryland had some decent talent but needed a QB. You don't beat Texas twice and pretty much OSU too (yes they went for 2) and not have talent. But again, needed a QB and not linebackers playing QB. Josh Jackson seems to be a solid pick by Locksley so far to fill the QB hole. Overall, IF...

    Syracuse or Maryland?

    Do you still stand by Babers being 10x the coach than Locksley? He completely shut down and run Babers out off the field like a high school team. I do still think Locksley has a LONG way to go to get his talent into Maryland and will do so by Year 3 like most HCs. He will have his ups and...

    OT: Harper to the Phils?

    What is the backstory on this issue? I dont follow the Nats as a fan.

    OT: Harper to the Phils?

    Harper is a talent. But at his price you can buy other pieces for a Champion team. Actually your GM is decent and smart to go his economic way to build up the roster around pitching and other spots. Not a fan of the new manager though.

    Amin Vanover St Joes 4 star 2020 Recruit primary Recruiter is..

    As an outsider, it does not seem NJ has much loyalty to the state university (yet) compared to other schools. Forget the top recruits for now. So I think its best to focus on the pipelines with underrated recruits from states like Florida. But I think Ash does not think macro picture. This...

    Former Virginia Tech QB Josh Jackson to Maryland

    I think you mean well but you missed my point completely-- the poster above tried to explain also. ALso this is not Locksley's first cycle so the point on #48 does not see the big picture. He has been here few weeks compared to coaches who have been recruiting the whole year. Yet still he...

    Former Virginia Tech QB Josh Jackson to Maryland

    You think he can break the Top 20? I think in 2 years and more 4 stars...he possibly could. Again, I think MD would smart to keep on hiring guys like Durkin and Locksley to put RECRUITING FIRST. You cannot even think of winning in cfball without talent. Period. This is a big shift in MD...

    Former Virginia Tech QB Josh Jackson to Maryland

    Care to put your money on it? I will take that bet. He is going over that record (at least).

    Former Virginia Tech QB Josh Jackson to Maryland

    People forget that MD beat Texas TWICE and pretty much OSU. But MD has major issues with injuries at QB. It has been talked about nationally by writers that no other school can compete with that issue.

    Former Virginia Tech QB Josh Jackson to Maryland

    Have you seen Lance Legendre? IMO, the guy is a true star from the south and I expected him to go to FSU. Big get for Lox. You have an insightful post. Alot of lower tier programs are forced to push young guys because of no depth...only to have them run over and have their confidence shot.

    DO you think he will go 3-31 at Maryland?
