Terps counting on Dion Wiley to be a factor off the bench

All summer, as Dion Wiley continued his rehabilitation from a torn meniscus that required surgery and kept him off the court for last season, he worked to regain the 3-point touch he had been known for in high school and for a few, rare moments during his freshman year at Maryland.

Throughout fall workouts, Wiley had impressed teammates and coaches with how much his shot had improved, helped in part by dropping more than 20 pounds and being able to get more elevation when shooting jumpers.

But when the Terps began their season earlier this month, Wiley's touch had disappeared.
