Congratulations to Melo Trimble for winning the MVP of the VTB League, Russia’s top basketball league. Fellow DMV legend Alex Ovechkin presented Trimble with the trophy 🐢
True story… when I got offered by University of Maryland I never wanted the coaches coming to my house. I was embarrassed by our living situation. Lights cut off, barely food in the crib and I damn sure didn’t want a roach running across the floor lol. So every time they asked, I went to campus instead.
PG County was rough in the late 80’s and 90’s. We had just had a shootout in our neighborhood. Coming out of high school I was the #1 player in the DMV and a lot of big names were leaving the area, but staying home meant everything to me.
I had a lot of offers… but there was really only one choice.
I think things turned out alright… HOF!!!! 💯
I had NO IDEA I was being inducted into the @umterps Hall of Fame.
I showed up thinking I was there to help bring other people on stage. When the new Athletic Director @TerpsADJimSmith came on board, I told him anything he needed from me to help make the program better, call me. So honestly, I thought that’s what the night was about.
To now be part of an elite class with so many legends who came before me, and to permanently represent the DMV and the University of Maryland in this way, is something I can’t even fully put into words.
This hit different. Forever a Terp!!!! Man….. 🐢🙏🏾 🎥 @waynekimmel
Villanova HC Kevin Willard: "I'm gonna fire my staff."
Lauren Shehadi: "Not now."
Willard: "Yeah, I am. Because we've given up 8 points on underneath out-of-bounds defense. The only thing I'm gonna do is fire them and get a new staff." #MarchMadness
