Does Wiseman still favor Terps

The idea of staying in-state and playing for Coach Ralph Friedgen's strong Maryland program has been very appealing to athlete Anthony Wiseman for quite some time. Is he still leaning towards doing that?

"Yes, that's what my number one option is right now, but I'm beginning to look at other possibilities," said Wiseman. "I'm really starting to look at Syracuse, Nebraska and Michigan. Those three schools are telling me they think I have a real good shot to come in and earn playing time, and I've just got a good feeling with all of them. Nebraska and Florida are coming by my school next week I think."

Wiseman has offers from Maryland, Syracuse, Virginia and Virginia Tech. At 5-foot-10 and 180-pounds, the Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha junior runs the 40-yard dash in 4.4 seconds.

"I went to the Virginia spring game," he said. "It was okay. I didn't really like the atmosphere at the school. It was too rural, and I'm more of a city guy. So I guess Nebraska is even worse in that way. I didn't go to the NIKE Camp because I have turf toe and I'm resting it for the May 5th combine and the NIKE Camp at Happy Valley."

As a junior Wiseman rushed for 900 yards on only 82 carries, with 10 of those going for touchdowns. He also intercepted three passes as a defensive back.
