Freshman kickoff specialist Bryce McFerson remains out with a groin injury that caused him to miss the first two games. Freshman walk-on Zac Yoakam has forced touchbacks on half of his six kickoffs, but the Irish rank 100th nationally in average kick return yardage allowed. Freeman confirmed tight end Mitchell Evans and running back Jadarian Price are out of walking boots following summer surgeries on their foot and Achilles, respectively. Neither has been cleared to practice. "Mitch is going to be a lot closer than Price," Freeman said. "Mitch is still working his way back. Probably in the next three weeks, hopefully, you'll see more of Mitchell Evans." - South Bend Tribune

09/10/22 - Taulia Tagovailoa, rSr/2024, Maryland, 5-11, 185 (DS#12 QB) + More +

Taulia Tagovailoa wasn't happy with himself after failing to throw a touchdown pass in Maryland's season opener. He made up for it in Week 2 - and then some. Tagovailoa threw for 391 yards and a career-high four touchdowns, and the high-powered Maryland Terrapins defeated the Charlotte 49ers 56-21 on Saturday to improve to 2-0 for the third time in four seasons under head coach Michael Locksley. Tagovailoa connected on TD passes of 39 and 45 yards to Jacob Copeland and 14 and 16 yards to Jeshaun Jones in the first half as the Terrapins scored touchdowns on their first five possessions to build a 35-14 lead. The redshirt junior also ran for a score in the second half. "I feel like we made most of our opportunities count, not just myself but our O-line, our receivers and tight ends," Tagovailoa said. "And we won the game, that's the biggest thing." Antwaine Littleton ran for a 59-yard touchdown and Colby McDonald scored on a 49-yard burst as Maryland outgained Charlotte 617-388. - Maryland/AP College Football

But somebody assisted in gathering 445 total yards, with 297 passing and that somebody was massive offensive tackle Jaelyn Duncan, who was second team All-Big Ten last year and is on the ascent. - Frank Cooney/NFL Draft Scout

2022 PRESEASON MANNING AWARD PRESEASON WATCH LIST: Taulia Tagovailoa, Jr., Maryland,...Tagovailoa elevated Maryland's passing game to heights it has never seen before during the 2021 season. The Ewa Beach, Hawaii native completed 328 of 474 passes for 3,860 yards and 26 touchdowns while setting seven single-season program records. He shattered the single-season school records for passing yards and completions while equaling the mark for touchdowns thrown.

Tagovailoa became the first quarterback to start every game of a season for Maryland since C.J. Brown did so in 2014. He closed his sensational season by completing 20 of 24 passes for 265 yards and two touchdowns to lead Maryland to a 54-10 rout of Virginia Tech in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl. Tagovailoa was named Most Valuable Player of the game after directing an offense that compiled 481 total yards and scored the most points in the history of the Pinstripe Bowl. - Maryland Football

08/09/22 - Dontay Demus Jr., rSr/2023, Maryland, 6-3, 212 (DS#37 WR) + More +

The Terps lost a pair of standout wide receivers, Dontay Demus Jr. and Jeshaun Jones, to major knee injuries last season. Demus led the Big Ten in receiving yards before he tore his ACL in the fifth game. Both participated in the first official practice of the preseason. Demus decided to put his NFL dreams on hold to return to Maryland, and even after dealing with a bone bruise in his foot in addition to the knee injury, he was surprised by the speed of his recovery. "I'm pretty much doing everything except for a little less contact," said Demus, a senior. "I feel like everything's pretty 100 percent, to be honest."

Jones, in his fifth season as a Terp, tore his other ACL in 2019 and said his most recent recovery process was "a lot smoother than my first time." Jones and Demus join junior star Rakim Jarrett (829 receiving yards last season) and Florida transfer Jacob Copeland (642 yards in 2021) to form a formidable unit. "I think it could be scary with all the weapons we have outside, with Lia in the pocket, the line up front, the backs we've got," Jones said. "I think the pass game could really open up for us." - Washington Post

08/09/22 - Chad Ryland, rSr/2023, Maryland, 6-0, 190 (DS#2 K) + More +

Chad Ryland will take over kicking duties for the Terps, filling the position previously held by Joseph Petrino for four seasons. Ryland, a four-year starter at Eastern Michigan, transferred to Maryland after setting the Eagles' single-season record for points (104) in 2021. He kicked a career-long 55-yard field goal late in the season and soon after made the jump to a Power Five program, using an extra season of eligibility granted to athletes because of the coronavirus pandemic. "Deep down, every kid's dream is to go as big as possible and make kicks on the biggest stage, which I'm obviously going to have a chance to do this year walking into Penn State, Michigan, Wisconsin," Ryland said. "I'm fired up about that, and that's something that contributed to my choice to come here." - Washington Post

2022 PRESEASON PAUL HORNUNG AWARD WATCH LIST: Tarheeb Still, Maryland,...Still enters his junior season as a Terp as a versatile player that plays every snap at cornerback, serves as the team's punt returner, and is on the field goal unit to block kicks. The Sicklerville, NJ native has started all 17 games he has played in over two seasons and has totaled 75 tackles (58 solo), 19 pass breakups, three tackles for loss and two sacks.

Still led the nation in pass breakups per game in 2020 en route to being named a Freshman All-American by The Athletic. Last season, Still stood Second on the team and sixth in the Big Ten with 11 pass breakups. As a punt returner, Still broke the school record for longest punt return in program history in last year's New Era Pinstripe Bowl, opening the scoring with a 92-yard touchdown to the house. In total, Still returned 21 punts for 172 yards. The cornerback was one of only 52 players in the FBS to return a punt for a touchdown last season. - Maryland Football

Mike Locksley believes the Terps' offensive line, which is returning all five starters, is the most improved unit on the team. He said redshirt senior tackle Jaelyn Duncan, a potential first-round pick in next year's NFL draft, has elite athleticism. "He's a [320]-pound guy that moves like he's 220 pounds," Locksley said of the former St. Frances star. "I would venture to say there are very few tackles throughout the country that have the type of athleticism he has with change of direction, balance and body control." - Baltimore Sun

07/30/22 - Dontay Demus Jr., rSr/2023, Maryland, 6-3, 212 (DS#37 WR) + More +

Mike Locksley said senior wide receiver Dontay Demus Jr. is "ahead of schedule" in his recovery from a knee injury he suffered last season and expects him to play in the season opener against Buffalo on Sept. 3, barring any setbacks. "[I'm] really impressed with how he's returned," Locksley said. "Our training staff, led by Brian Simerville, has done a tremendous job of getting Dontay back. I think last week he broke 21 or 22 [mph] on the Catapult [fitness tracker], which means he's got that explosiveness back." Demus, who was considered a potential mid-to-late-round draft pick last season, caught 28 passes for 507 yards and three touchdowns in five games before injuring his knee during a kick return in Maryland's loss to Iowa in October. Demus' return will be huge for the Terps, who are poised to have one of the best passing units in the conference. Demus, a three-time All-Big Ten honorable mention, is second in program history in career 100-yard games (seven), sixth in career touchdowns (13), eighth in career yards (1,775) and 12th in career receptions (106). - Baltimore Sun
