For the past three seasons, Maryland basketball was powered by Melo Trimble. It was his team and rightly so.
Over three years, he compiled a 79-25 record and led the Terps to three straight NCAA Tournaments, including Maryland’s first Sweet Sixteen appearance since 2003. As Trimble went, so did the Terps. After starting the 2016-17 season 20-2, Maryland floundered and its postseason was over as fast as it began.
Coming off a 24-9 finish, including swift exits from both the Big Ten and NCAA Tournaments, and Trimble’s departure, Maryland is ready to usher in a new era.
