- Silver Spring native Baba Oladotun, the national No. 1 prospect in the 2027 class, takes pictures with Terps fans at Xfinity Center:
- Kevin Willard on Maryland having six days before its next game: "We have not been good coming off byes, thanks a lot [for reminding me]... I was gonna go have a beer, now I'm gonna switch to whiskey."
- Kevin Willard on Derik Queen: "Maryland fans better get used to watching him, because I don't think he'll be here next year... you're just seeing what a pro looks like at 19 years old."
- Julian Reese might be the last of a dying breed in college basketball — when everything around him moved, he didn’t. “He’s stayed the course and been as true to the University of Maryland as any player probably ever has.” dbknews.com/2025/03/07/jul…
- Kevin Willard gave Maryland four days off after the Terps beat Syracuse in Brooklyn last Saturday, which he said was the reason for Maryland's sluggishness against UMES today. "You can't give college kids four days off. I'm an idiot," Willard said.

- Maryland men's basketball will be the No. 2 seed in the Big Ten tournament. Its first game (quarterfinal) is at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. The Terps’ seed is eight spots higher than their projection in the preseason poll — the highest jump of any team in the conference.
- Kevin Willard said Tafara Gapare missed 12 straight days with the flu and lost 19 pounds. "Getting Tafara back is huge, because he gives us another level coming off the bench. ... He's now just getting back to where he was, and he was playing really good."
- Maryland men's basketball slots in at No. 11 in the AP poll, its highest ranking in five years. Terps have won 11 of their last 13 — with those two losses each coming by a last-second basket — and haven't lost by more than one score since Jan. 5 (4-point loss @ Oregon).
- What's a Kevin Willard press conference without a little fun? Willard's latest when asked about "the situation" at Maryland:
- Derik Queen did a Derik Queen thing. Terps make their first Sweet 16 since 2016.
