Maryland entered the season with lofty expectations.
When their NCAA Tournament run ended on Thursday, a feeling of unfulfillment was in the air.
The 2015-2016 version of the Terrapins were expected to be a Final Four team. With Jake Layman and Melo Trimble returning to the team for another go-round, Maryland also received the services of Robert Carter and Rasheed Sulaimon via the transfer market and Diamond Stone via the recruiting circuit.
With a starting five like that, it’s pretty easy to see why Maryland was being projected for a Final Four run.
