The Kevin Willard era is off to about as good of a start as imaginable. Maryland men’s basketball has won each of its first five games, making its season debut in the AP poll at No. 23.

Willard is the first head coach in Maryland history to win their first five games.

The Terps’ national recognition comes after their sensational weekend, taking home the Hall of Fame Tip Off Classic championship in Uncasville, Connecticut.

In Maryland’s first game of the weekend Saturday, the Terps ran Saint Louis out of the gym, 95-67.
