I agree. I was getting a hard time from some people on here about wanting honest evaluations from the coaches. I understand why the coaches would shut it down though with dumb sh!ts asking all the wrong questions.....
Especially doing what they did today. They were asking treon if he's going to transfer and stupid $hit like that. Wtf...kinda crap is that??? It's only the 2nd spring practice and they are already grilling him about transferring??? C'mon man!!! Lol

For some reason those kids don't like to leave Maryland. I don't get why they like to stay home and get abused year in year out by the rest of the country.

For those of you clamoring for "honest' and "transparent" answers from a head college football coach, you better not hold your breath. It's never going to happen. Ever. From any coach. Ever.

Right, it's not like Maryland has done sh!t since that fat guy-Freigden?- used to coach them about 12-15 years ago. Then again maybe Stephon Diggs was smarter than us by not coming here to play for Muschamp......

And you really wouldn't want it. His job is to win football games and motivate kids.

2 practices into spring and the local media is already asking Treon if he's thinking about transferring. Smh...Amazing!!!!

Stay classy!

And I'd rather not have VH3 on kick returns. We dont need that guy getting hurt. Powell could be our next Brandon James on punt returns. Sounds like Powell to slot receiver?

Will Grier and Treon Harris both looked sharp throwing in the skeleton drills. Harris and Grier both threw the ball with zip and accuracy.
Sophomore Brandon Powell made a beautiful over the shoulder catch on a pass in tight coverage from Will Grier. Powell was bounced around a lot last season but McElwain wants to give the sophomore some stability.
“In our offense, he’s a guy that’s obviously got to touch the ball, but he’s probably more comfortable at running back, but we’re putting him at full-time receiver. Now we’ll use him in jet sweeps, we’ll bring him back in the backfield and he can still run the ball as a running back, but that’s the versatility that you kind of look for at that position. I think he really looks comfortable out there. That’s something that’s good to see.”
Defensively, Duke Dawson is still working at safety with Keanu Neal and Marcus Maye. Marcell Harris hasn’t been getting as many reps as the other players during the open portions of the first two practices.
Redshirt senior Jake McGee looks fluid and fast returning from his broken leg. McGee is not working out when practice moves to the full-team portions but he is showcasing his athleticism and playmaking ability when he’s in there.
Brandon Powell, JC Jackson, Demarcus Robinson and Vernon Hargreaves have all been working out as returners on special teams.

I completely agree with this. Find a guy like Debose who is exciting with the ball in his hands, but not an essential piece of your Offense or Defense.

T you've really been hating on Harris lately. I'll bet if Grier becomes the starter and goes down with an injury or maybe pulls a Driskel you'll change your tune.

I agree to a degree.......If a guy is good enough to change games with his returns sometimes you gotta take a chance though.....points are points and those with the most usually win. Besides sometimes the threat of a great returner changes the oppositions kicking scheme without ever touching the ball, squib kicks, pooch punts and kicking the ball out of bounds trying to keep it away from a dangerous returner are all ways they effect a game.
That being said I would rather see Powell, JC Jackson or Showers? handling the duties.
