    Maryland Has Concerns At Running Back


    Georgia Tech defensive tackle Darryl Richard is among 42 of the top defensive players in the nation to be named to the 2007 Lott Trophy Watch List, announced today.

    Named after Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott, The Lott Trophy is awarded to college football's Defensive IMPACT Player of the Year. Now in its fourth year, The Lott Trophy is the first college football award to equally recognize athletic performance and the personal character attributes of the player.

    The Maryland football team resumed its spring schedule Tuesday afternoon with a spirited two-hour workout under warm and breezy conditions at the Terrapins on-campus practice facility.

    It was the fourth practice of the spring but just the second in pads which translated to a livelier tempo.

    "We have a long way to go," said head coach Ralph Friedgen. "However, it is spring practice, so now is the time to see what we can and can't do. Overall, today's practice was enthusiastic."

    Maryland running back Keon Lattimore is out with a back injury and reserve tailback Da'Rel Scott was carted off the field at practice with a left knee injury, causing coach Ralph Friedgen concern about depth at the position.

    "Running back, that's going to be a real problem," Friedgen said. "I don't know if I'm going to have to move somebody, which I really don't want to do, but I don't know if I'm going to have a choice not to do it."
