QUOTABLE - On why Maryland is a good fit for him:

“I like the new system that coach Bell has in place on offense. From an academic perspective, it’s really good and the internship opportunities being close to D.C. is pretty good as well. I know the type of system that coach Bell runs and they really like my size and what I can do to stretch the field. They said there would be opportunity for early playing time and it’s just up to me and how well I perform and display myself.”
