Recruit well-received

At Looney’s Pub in College Park on Friday, it was hard to know who to feel worse for — Maryland football fans cheering wildly for the commitment of an 18-year-old or the object of their affection, Good Counsel wide receiver Stefon Diggs. As for the fans, it’s clear they are desperate for some good news out of a program that has produced 2-10 seasons two of the last three years and appears on the verge of having its star quarterback transfer.

But for Diggs, now comes the hard part as he tries to lift the program from dire straits and live up to his five-star rating from Rivals.com.
