Much has been made of Maryland men’s basketball’s freshmen and returning core. But the complementary players surrounding them remain essential.
Following Maryland’s loss to Alabama in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, head coach Kevin Willard left with one major takeaway: he needed to add athleticism.
“The biggest thing that I realized was that we just weren’t athletic enough at times,” he said. “And Alabama was probably the most athletic team in the country last year, so it was a little bit of a mismatch.”
Willard addressed that need via the transfer portal with forward Jordan Geronimo.
