Per Wednesday's Baltimore Sun, Maryland no longer is pursuing him:

GET HIM. You can always cut him. School needs to sack up and stop worrying about a little bad press.

That's just not the case. Much depends on his trial late June. Maryland may still back out, but they haven't thus far. They just aren't actively recruiting the kid, straight up holding pattern. The Sun & The Post are not where you get Terps news.

I hope you don't get your sports coverage from the Times...comics and sports; they're both awful.

LOL, not a big Times fan either. My Dad's a huge booster, I'm a grad and booster, as well as grew up w/the Terp recruit coordinator. Been around the program a long time etc. My Terp news isn't filtered

I know I'm just [deleted] on the Times because I like reading the comics and the sports section...and I've never seen a worse set of comics than in the Times.

Starting on page one!

How anyone can move as liberal as the DMN has and then can't understand why they have lost subscribers is beyond me.

Heh. You should be a comic.

On a side note, anybody need a patent attorney?

Lance's Dad came out and said that Maryland was still an option for his son. As of Wednesday night, the Terps were still in the thick of it

How many options does the kid have? Schools aren't exactly lining up for him.

Depending on where MoMo Jones goes, Maryland/Memphis/FIU & possibly Zona. Zona doesn't seem that interested though. Ultimately, if he pleads out of the court case, or it ends in his favor, you'll see a few more schools step back up. Not many want to take a verbal from a kid that is in court for a groping charge next week
