Sports Sermon: Maryland needs a new game plan

Maryland has eight varsity sports going down the drain, and budgetary problems growing immensely over the next few years. Maybe it’s time for Kevin Anderson to realize that the Terps need a lot more than a basketball game with the Hoyas to fix their own problems.
