Bob Haynie had the Terps' guy from Pressbox on who broke this news...as saying Gilchrist lost an appeal from the conference, because the rule for transferring within the ACC is TWO years, not one.

Yet apparently nobody knew this outside the university.

All I will say is that I demand Keith Cavanaugh's head on a platter. How did he not inform anyone of this over the past year (Haynie, who does the weekly show with him, admitted as much)?

There is something REALLY fishy here...

I have made some comments on Gilchrist that resulted from emotion and were in poor taste and for that I apologize.

But this is now beyond ridiculous. I feel bad for anyone that is getting bad advice and this appears to be the case with Gilchrist. His "personal advisor" Terelle Woody is really not doing Gus any favors.

I really hope that this young man grows up and soon or he'll be just another washed up athlete wondering "what if".

I'm kinda confused about what you are saying here. How does Keith Cavanaugh deserve blame?

He's not a Terps guy, he's a recruiting guy. He will stop at nothing to bad mouth the Maryland program, so take everything he says about the Terps (not neccesarily the Gilchrist situation, but anything Maryland related) with a grain of salt. He's a Maryland alum who feels snubbed by Gary and the program and has adopted Duke or anything Mike Brey related as his favorites. He's a very knowledgable guy, but has it in for Maryland in a big way.

I have always said that Brey would be a perfect replacement for Williams if Maryland does ever get rid of him, which as a Carolina fan I certainly hope they do.

Heck, I would try to get Mark Few away from Gonzaga :noidea:

I just see him as a West Coast guy. Great coach though, he's done an unreal job at a small school like Gonzaga.

Who cares where he has been. Don't you think he would have a real good shot at being successful in the ACC?

Gary's achilles heel in the last 4 years has been recruiting, and now this offseason kicks the program right in the Jimmy again. I understand just how much GW has done for the program, but it is time for a coaching change.

I think he could succeed anywhere, but I don't think he's interested in moving East. His name came up at South Carolina, Tennessee, Iowa and I'm sure others the past few years.

As for Gary Williams recruiting, people always bring up how he's struggled recently. He's never been a good recruiter, from Boston College to Ohio State to Maryland. Jimmy Jackson, Danny Miller, Travis Garrison, and Mike Jones are the only McDonald's guys i can think of off the top of my head. Johnny Rhodes too. His recruiting "problems" have always been there. He's always had good assistants like Art Perry, Dave Dickerson, and Billy Hahn working their tails off for him. As far as prospects go, I don't think Maryland is any worse off then they've ever been. He's just not developing the current guys like he did with Juan Dixon, Steven Blake, Lonny Baxter and guys from your two Final Four teams.

      Jordan Westburg 2024

      Yeah, basically this, that Westburg's underlying numbers (EV, barrel %, xwOBA) seem to point at this being pretty real, or at least that there's nothing 'undeserved / lucky' about this hot streak, if it's just that.

      The problem with a Cowser/Kjerstad/Stowers/Bradfield outfield roster is there are no right handers to handle LHP. I don't think and completely left handed outfield is the destination for an organization the values versatility.

      Looks maybe concussion related.

      How can you not be romantic about baseball? This seems slightly poetic. I enjoyed reading, and correlated your experience in the stands back to what I watch in Game 1 on MASN.  It was also pretty cool to hear Jim Palmer give you a shout out in Game 2 of the series on Live TV.

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      By baltfan · Posted

      I am not worried.  It just doesn’t remotely meet the eye test.  He has been great in the field . I can think of at least 3 outstanding plays he has made and not any that I thought he should have gotten but didn’t. Meanwhile Holliday is 3 OAA and I can’t think of an outstanding play and can think of a number I thought he should have made.

      Nicely stated Roy. Every since I was 9 years old and saw the O's vs. the Tokyo Giants in Tokyo in 1971, I've been infected with the Orange/Black virus. There is no cure and I don't want one. You and I sat at the lunch table with Jim Palmer at the 1970 World Series Champs reunion, and its still one of my enduring baseball memories. You said I looked like Carlton Fisk! I was at all 3 games in this Angels series, right behind the O's dugout. I got to see all our boys, and just simply love to watch this team play. And in true baseball fashion, the one game on paper we should have dominated (GRod vs. 8+ ERA Channing), we end up down 7-0 and lose. But watching Gunnar's homers, his electric triple, and he made a fantastic play today on a ball that went under Westburg's glove, Adley do Adley things, Cowser, holy crap. Kimbrel v. Trout with bases loaded, bottom of 9th, 2 outs, down by 2? That was fun. Next game Trout bats leadoff and torches a GRod fastball for a homer to the opposite field.  An observation.... If you didn't know anything about the team, and you only watched game 1 batting practice, you'd think Cowser and O'Hearn were the studs of the team. Mountcastle was taking BP with the reserves and he put on a show as well.  Home after 3 straight days watching this O's team, so jealous of the Balt fans in Balt that get to see the team with regularity. It's a special bunch.
