For example, this one guy (who is small, quiet, and mild-mannered) said Vasquez always speeds around campus on his moped, and nearly ran him over one day last fall. The guy told him to slow down, and he said Vasquez screeched the moped to a halt and cussed him out right there on the sidewalk. Mind you Vasquez is about a foot taller than this guy. Sounds like a quality individual.
Well come to think of it, I would say that there is a difference between a student athlete interacting with an administrator. I do remember as an undergrad having run-ins with arrogant athletes too, so it doesn't surprise me.

Gary Williams just isn't a very good recruiter. The DC Metro area is full of some of the best high school talent in the country, and he rarely lands any of them. I don't think he'll ever sniff another final four.
Well I think Terp fans have mixed feelings about this. Last year it was a huge discussion and many fans were calling for his resignation or for him to get fired because of it.
