I mean just play the Ravens/Steeelers game right now. That's an AFC North sky if I've ever seen one.

Against Wagner, Maryland FINALLY had Rice, Washington & Payne healthy & on the court. Now, can the Terps pull an upset over Bennett Stirtz and the Iowa Hawkeyes in tomorrow's B1G opener? I discuss on The Route 1 Rundown!

The last Maryland basketball player to have their jersey raised at Xfinity Center was Greivis Vasquez, who last played in 2010. Which Terps who aren't honored should be?

I answer that question on the latest episode of The Route 1 Rundown.

295 Sports Minute - The Hurricanes were simply the better team than the Caps over the course of this series. Carolina carried played, won the special teams battle, got a better goaltending performance & shut down the Caps top scorers. Now, the question is what can the Caps do about it this summer?

295 Sports Minute - Reacting to the Commanders' schedule.

The Commanders are finally a national draw again & the schedule reflects it. America is going to see a lot of Jayden Daniels & this team in '25. There's one thing the Commanders will have to do that nobody else in the NFL will... #RaiseHail

295 Sports Minute - Reacting to the Ravens' schedule.

At this point, there's not much the Ravens can prove in the regular season, but making it through this gauntlet is the first necessary step if they're going to achieve the ultimate goal. #RavensFlock

295 Sports Minute - Monday night will be remembered as one of missed opportunities for both the Wizards & the Caps.

295 Sports Minute - Rings in the room is a cliche we hear all the time in hockey, but when the Caps needed it most Tom Wilson & John Carlson, a couple of the guys with rings in the room, elevated their play and gave the Caps exactly what they needed to tie the series with the Hurricanes.
May 9, 2025 at 2:49 PM
Carlson made some huge plays on the previous PP too. Now he picks up a PP goal!
2-0 Capitals. Just a great pass from Tom Wilson to a crashing John Carlson on the power play, and the Caps have their first multi-goal lead of the series

295 Sports Minute - Reacting to the Caps Game 1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Carolina dominated all facets of the game & in a weird way it actually reminded me of some playoff games from early in the Ovi era. Is there something the Caps can learn from an old playoff foe?

On @glennclarkradio.bsky.social five-star Maryland commit Darius Adams talked about his versatility. Adams said he feels comfortable playing the 1 or 2 & that he's a good shooter, but can also get to the rim and the mid range.
Now on GCR, a chance to meet Maryland Basketball's incoming Freshman, McDonald's All-American, Darius Adams! As we talk about why he wanted to be a Terp, decommiting from UConn and much more!

295 Sports Minute: The Capitals kick off their second-round Stanley Cup Playoff series against the Hurricanes tonight and I think the key matchup is the Caps power play vs the Canes penalty kill.

What do you think has to happen in this series for the Caps to advance?

I dive into the Terps' two latest commitments, Buzz Williams' staff additions and Maryland's 2025-2026 Big Ten opponents on the latest episode of The Route 1 Rundown.

Buzz Williams' early decisions indicate he is prioritizing doing things his way with his guys. The question now is will it pay dividends on the scoreboard? If he wins big Terps fans will love him, but if he struggles early this approach may stoke the flames of anger for a fan base thin on patience.

Congratulations to "arm malleability" for winning this season's draft buzz word of the year award!

It follows previous winners like "upside potential," "eye discipline," & "plays in a phone booth."

Only time will tell if it's the kind of phrase you "mortgage the future" for!
