Here’s Mark Turgeon previewing Maryland basketball’s season from Big Ten media day

Following his second season in the Big Ten conference, Maryland men’s basketball head coach Mark Turgeon is excited to get his third year underway. Speaking at Big Ten media day on Thursday, he shed some light on the season ahead for Maryland basketball. Here are some highlights:

Turgeon is known as a strong recruiter, but this year he’ll need to be a different kind of coach.

Excited about my team. Have a lot of new players, new pieces, a lot of good pieces. Last year I had a veteran team and it wasn’t as much teaching, but when you get into coaching you like being around guys and teaching and getting them better.
