I sat right behind the Maryland bench and really enjoyed watching Boomer warm up. He threw such a pretty and catchable pass My company contracted Boomer to do some PR work for us a number of years ago and we talked about that game a bit and his biggest reflection was about Tommy Agee's performance that day. An amazing game by both teams. What got my attention the most was his detailed recollection of down and distance details of the game. Sharp cookie.

The Plainsman 948 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Maryland was no pushover. I think they were ranked something like #7 in the country, and I can remember being awestruck by the rifle of an arm Boomer had. I remember seeing maybe 30 to 40 yard passes being thrown on a rope, zero arc on the pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agee wasn't touched for about 5 yards every time he carried. I was a student in the endzone, so the alignment was just obvious for the taking. But as usual, I was also slightly impaired, so my recollection may be off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had he wanted to decommit, you don't purposely tweet out that you are "110% committed and always will be.
