Sports 56 Mornings with Greg & Eli - April 29, 2026 https://t.co/4GYEgcy3Vo
DJ Wagner is the latest piece of a major offseason overhaul by Buzz Williams and his assistants. Coming off a painful 11-21 first season in College Park, the 53-year-old coach has been recruiting like a guy who understands the need for a bounce-back season.
Combining Maryland basketball's five incoming transfers and its Baba Oladotun-led high school recruiting class, Buzz Williams' overall haul in his first full offseason ranks No. 3 nationally and first in the Big Ten in @247sports' rankings.
Buzz Williams & AC Aki Collins win a MASSIVE recruiting battle and land 2026 5 ⭐️ Baba Oladotun. The Blake HS & Team Durant product chose the Terps over other programs such as G’Town & Arkansas. Another blue-chip prospect the Terps were able to keep home.
Charles Barkley on Jimmy Butler's 56-point performance:
"That was the best performance I've seen since I've been on television. It was flat out incredible and an honor and privilege to watch it. That guy was not going to let them lose tonight."
This video of Tennessee commit Amari Evans staying calm while South Carolina commit Eli Ellis loses his mind is ridiculous 😭
Pretty apparent which one of the two is a Rick Barnes commit.
Norfolk State's Robert Jones is one of the most underrated coaches in the country:
• 4 straight 20+ win seasons
• 1 losing season in 12 years
The Spartans are on an 8 game winning streak and seeking an NCAA tournament bid. 👀
