Five-Star Wide Receiver Stefon Diggs Signs With Maryland, Brings Some Much Needed Optimism
College Football February 11th. 2012, 4:25pmThis is why Maryland hired Mike Locksley. The Terps went 1-10 against FBS, wore some profoundly stupid looking uniforms and saw Randy Edsall charm 22 (and counting) recruits out of the program. That was enough raw material for Locksley to convince five-star wide receiver Stefon Diggs, Rivals’ No. 8 overall recruit, to stay in state.
“I want to win championships. I want to win bowl games,” Diggs said. “Where else is a better place to do it than your city?”
We could think of a few places…
Florida had been an initial favorite for Diggs, though Charlie Weis’ departure and a late push from Ohio State muddled the picture. Auburn also recruited him heavily. This is a major coup for Maryland, especially after the season they just had. Five-star recruits aren’t guarantees, but Diggs’ commitment will provide some optimism for a program with a serious need for it. Could this be enough to change Danny O’Brien’s mind?

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! I though Urban was guaranteed to get every five-star recruit he wanted.

Championships with Maryland? Really? You mean they have a football program?!
Forget OSU with a national Championship in 2002 and a coach with 2 Nation Championships! Reality may hit him some day that there needs to be a team around him. From this process it’s obvious he doesn’t think that way.
