"It puts you right back in that right mindset that this is what you want to do," Na'eem Abdul-Rahim Gladding says of UMD's win over Purdue. "It just makes us that much more hungry to go get another one."

"When you start off practice like that, it fires guys up, it just makes practice that much more competitive," Maryland WR Na'eem Abdul-Rahim Gladding says of the "Terp Alley" practice periods.
"If we do the right things, if our process is the right process, and we're disciplined ... throughout the week, why shouldn't I feel like I should win every game?" Maryland interim coach Aazaar Abdul-Rahim says. "That's how I'm going to feel the rest of the [season]."
Aazaar Abdul-Rahim explains how he's using Maryland's 1-v-1 situational practice sessions - called Terp Alley - to try and create the closest to a live, game-rep experience as possible.
"If you're not executing in Terp Alley, good luck playing in the game."

Abdul-Rahim: "We didn't really look at what was done before. We wanted to be as imaginative, innovative as possible ... I think during these types of changes, I think it's important to try different things."

Maryland guard Andre Mills said getting revenge against Georgetown for a loss last year was “personal.”
The sophomore will have to wait another year.
