What a difference a year makes. Last August the Maryland football team was taking a long, hard look at itself-trying to find a way out of back to back losing seasons. This month practice kicks off with the Terrapins trying to build on a 9-4 campaign.
All eyes will be on who takes over for Sam Hollenbach at quarterback; Jordan Steffy's thrown five passes since 2004-and his one quarter of action last fall saw him toss an interception, lose a fumble and his shoe. The junior will have competition from sophomore Josh Portis-- the transfer from Florida sat out 2006 and has tremendous upside. The question facing coach Ralph Friedgen and his staff-- potential over polish? With a September that features West Virginia dropping by College Park followed as well as back-to-back road games against Wake Forest and Rutgers, this sooner this team knows who QB-1 is, the better.
