Maryland plays in a difficult conference--perhaps the most difficult in the country. The UPI poll, taken among college coaches themselves, lists three of the seven ACC teams in its top 20--North Carolina is third, Maryland 10th and Virginia 18th--and a former conference member, South Carolina, is ranked fourth...
...even if Maryland fares poorly over the regular season, the team will have a reprieve in the form of the ACC playoff in March. Last year a North Carolina team that won the League title over a 14 game season lost it to South Carolina in a three game knockout tournament. Instead of going to the NCAA playoffs, where the other regular-season conference champions were, the Tarheels had to settle for the NIT at New York, which they won easily...

And the reason, behind all the charlatanerie and press releases, is Driesell, and his recruiting genius, Ravelling. Whether Driesell is a good technical coach is open to debate. His 176-65 record during 12 seasons at Davidson was well above average, but not in the same league with that...

And even last winter, when his varsity was still only putting together a 14-12 record and a sixth-place finish in the ACC, he had sophomores like guard Howie White, one of the best field generals in the East. Bob Bodell, a superb ballhawk and defensive man, and O'Brien, who was his best man from outside...
...Miss Darcel, and smiling by Lancaster--all designed to keep the viewer happy. Since the moral and psychological implications of the picture are almost nil, there are very few of those annoying expository speeches. When they occur they are usually couched in reference to a paragon of ruthlessness named Acc Hanna, whom Lancaster shot to death long before the start of the movie in return for various favors...
