"The addition of Sulaimon will likely vault Maryland into the top of every preseason poll. The Terps were No. 4 in our preseason top 25 prior to Sulaimon’s commitment; they’re No. 2 in the country, behind only North Carolina, with him. With potential all-american point guard Melo Trimble and senior wing Jake Layman returning, Georgia Tech transfer Robert Carter becoming eligible and top ten recruit Diamond Stone entering the program, the Terps have as much talent in their starting lineup as anyone in the country."

I think Maryland overachieved this year as much as Nebraska overachieved last year. They will probably be a better team this year but unless they overachieve again, their record might not show it.

I kind of liked Maryland, until the coach decided to bring in the transfer from Duke. From my understanding the guy has been charged two times with molesting women. Iowa State doesn't go that low. The coach said he knew the guy since he was 13 years old, but that doesn't make it right. The Maryland coach sounds pretty scummy to me.

Maryland will be really good next year but you've got a lot of players that probably think they deserve the ball and 2 guards that tend to dominate the ball.

Will chemistry be an issue? Duke was better without Sulaimon.
