Gary Williams met with the media today at Comcast Center and said that junior guard Greivis Vasquez would miss tomorrow’s exhibition against Northwood University for an undisclosed violation of team rules.
Williams said that he also might keep freshman guard Sean Mosley out because of a mild sprained ankle, but added that the former St. Frances star would play if it were a regular season game. Mosley has been out since rolling the ankle after coming down on Vasquez’s foot in practice last Friday.
The early issue with Vasquez is interesting, considering that he is a team captain and is expected to be one of the leaders. Williams said that the issue was an off-the-court matter and that Vasquez would be back at practice Monday as the Terps continued to prepare for the season opener a week from tonight against Bucknell.
Williams said of the Vasquez benching, “It’s a good time. Better than being in the penalty box during the season.”
Asked what Vasquez did wrong, Williams said, “He’s a college student, you know what they’re like.”
