Maryland sophomore quarterback Tyrrell Pigrome will miss the remainder of the season after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Saturday’s 51-41 upset over Texas, Coach DJ Durkin said Tuesday.
While the win over the Longhorns, Maryland’s first over a ranked team in seven years, served as a potential springboard to a promising season in College Park, it came at a heavy price.
The loss of Pigrome thrusts the quarterback situation back into a state of flux — the Terrapins will start true freshman Kasim Hill on Saturday in the home opener against Towson.
