[cncchris33]

Wow sounds like he likes crab cakes and being mediocre at football.

That's what Maryland does.

Random. Seems like Maryland gets a highly rated recruit every now and then. Never understood it

Typically, it means that some of the other offers are not committable. Maryland and West Virginia are two examples of schools that benefit from that. Have no idea if that is the case here. Usually there is some red flag that makes the "big offers" hesitant. So the player takes the offer from the school that is thrilled to get a talented player.

Maryland and WVU are not the same. Tons of teams wanted Rakim Jarrett.

Similar situations when they get highly ranked players. Did not say the same. WVU is usually players with major grade concerns. Maryland does occasionally get a player that other major programs were heavily pursuing. But on the average there is 'smoke' there as so how hard the big programs are going after them.

How they’re getting these NC kids idk

Fong Bomb to Maryland

Locksley is a really good recruiter.

Must be a woman involved.

Idk why people think this. Locksley is a pretty good recruiter and there is a lot of talent that originates from the DMV area.

They’re gonna snag a big fish or two every now and then.

Why do people say stuff like this all the time? Why do you think he will be in the portal?

They gave Ohio State all they wanted. Locksley is gonna upset OSU or UM at some point.

Yeah he’s nowhere near elite when it comes to Xs and Os but he draws in talent.

If he were to hit on an up and coming coordinator on either side of the ball they could be a real consistent thorn in the BIG elites’ sides.

Feels like every year they get one or two big time recruits and they always end up in the portal. I doubt that’s true but it feels like it

Maryland always get the high profile guys that are left over bc they have off field baggage it seems like. Rakim Jarrett didn't have anything off field but Terrence Lewis, Shaleak Knotts, now Rico Walker, etc

Walker has off the field issues? They also have a pretty good shot with Harbor too.

He got cut from UNC's class bc of an off field event. AP later said that's why we weren't pushing for him after the decommitment
