Mark Turgeon seemed to be only half-joking, but when asked Friday how Saturday night’s game against Seton Hall had come about, the Maryland men’s basketball coach might have been a little too honest in his response.
“We needed a game, they needed a game, we both thought we weren’t going to be any good,” Turgeon said. “They lost a lot of starters, we lost some people. We thought we were going to be both young teams. We just thought it was going to be a really good game for both of us.
