Maryland basketball is on its way. The Terps’ men’s and women’s teams were introduced to their fans for the first time this season during Maryland Madness on Friday.
If you weren’t at Xfinity Center, don’t worry. Here’s what you missed:
1. Mark Turgeon knows how to make an entrance. The Terps’ head coach showed up in a bright orange car while the PA announcer bellowed his praises.
Yeah, that's a car on the main floor. Yeah, that's Mark Turgeon walking out of it. Yeah, that's awesome. pic.twitter.com/bBfsHvRRTu

Rolling up in a car was Turgeon’s way of promoting Driven to Cure, a non-profit used to raise awareness for kidney cancer.
