The Maryland men’s basketball team is expected to add South Carolina assistant coach Bruce Shingler to Mark Turgeon’s staff, a source confirmed Saturday, filling the void left by Bino Ranson, who left last month for a position at DePaul.
Shingler, a Maryland native, was on the Gamecocks staff for the last five seasons. He also served as an assistant at Towson from 2012-16 and spent time on the staff at Morgan State and Kansas State.
A three-year starter at St. Augustine’s College in Raleigh, North Carolina, Shingler’s addition should give the Terps a healthy connection to the DMV recruiting area after the departure of Ranson, a Baltimore native who helped bring in some of the program’s top local products.
