Maryland Football Recruiting News

Maryland hosted one of its top offensive tackle targets for an official visit June 11-13 with St. Frances (Baltimore, Md.) three-star Andre Roye making his way back to College Park, Md.

Rockwall-Heath (Rockwall, Texas) three-star safety Peyton Williams had been hearing from UMD assistant Brian Williams and defensive coordinator Brian Stewart since early April, and apparently the 6-foot-1, 180-pounder heard enough to warrant an official visit to College Park, Md.

Maryland hasn’t pulled a prospect out of the Muck region in Florida since Will Likely, but on June 11 the Terps anted up for a pair of linemen from Likely’s high school alma mater, Glades Central (Belle Glade, Fla.).

The Terps continue to ante up for offensive line prospects in the 2022 class, and on June 7 the staff handed a budding tackle from Pennsylvania his second power-five offer.

The Terps were first to offer safety/receiver Ja’Kobi Albert (Fairfield Prep/Fairfield, Ala.) back on Dec. 4, 20220, and and six months later they were the first to host him on an official visit.

One of Maryland’s top offensive tackle targets is Montgomery Bell Academy (Nashville, Tenn.) lineman Grayson Morgan, and June 4-6 the 6-foot-6, 280-pounder was in College Park, Md., for his first official visit.

Swing lineman Gilles Tchio (Milton/Alpharetta, Ga.) embarked on the first of two official visits June 4-6, taking in College Park, Md., for his initial look at the Terps.

The Terps football program hosted numerous visitors June 4-6:

Middle linebacker Caleb Wheatland (Westfield/Chantilly, Va.) had a handful of lower Division I offers entering June, but on June 3 the 6-foot-2, 235-pounder earned his first power-five look.

Kingsford (Mich.) tight end Zach Person has several offers from smaller Division I programs, but numerous power-five programs have taken note of the 6-foot-5, 220-pounder.

The Terps have multiple offers out to junior college offensive linemen, and May 25 line coach Brian Braswell extended another such verbal.

Maryland was on the lookout for a center with no clearcut starter following Johnny Jordan’s departure, and the Terps found their man May 25.

Maryland doesn’t often recruit the state of Nevada, but Terps’ defensive line coach Brian Williams and area recruiter Brawley Evans identified an intriguing defensive tackle back in March and has been pressing for him since then.

Perry Fisher (Lincoln/Tallahassee, Fla.) had a standout junior campaign, quarterbacking his team to a 7-2 record while throwing for more than 2,000 yards and adding 350-plus on the ground.

Here are five official visitors the staff has a real chance to sway during their 48-hour stays in College Park, Md.:

Tyler Johnson (Magna Vista/Ridgeway, Va.) is an emerging star in Virginia, and more and more high-level college programs have taken notice during the spring evaluation period.

Corner/receiver Octavian Smith (Paint Branch/Burtonsville, Md.) had one power-five offer from Vanderbilt heading into May 19, but that quickly changed in the span of a half-hour.

Maryland has been after DeMatha (Hyattsville, Md.) safety Kevin Winston for well over a year, and now they’re among the top four or five contenders heading into the 6-foot-2, 190-pound three-star’s June official visits.
