The Terrapins picked up a former highly-valued Baltimore prospect from one of the nation's premier defensive programs. Yeah, it's good news.
Lost in the shuffle of Maryland's new depth chart and the three-way battle for the quarterback position was a new addition to the program: Melvin Keihn. A former highly-regarded recruit at Baltimore powerhouse Gilman High School, Keihn committed to Virginia Tech Christmas Eve 2013, and played one season in Blacksburg before transferring back home.
Keihn was rated the No. 12 prospect in the state of Maryland by the composite in the class of 2014, and received offers from the likes of Penn State, Notre Dame and Miami, among others.
