On Randle: Returning senior whose development in 2002 was instrumental in the Terps' drive to the NCAA title … fills interior roles at power forward and center, and was remarkably productive in his first Division I season while averaging just 9.6 minutes per game … former junior college recruit who helped Allegany CC to the national junior college finals … helped re-stock Maryland's interior depth, while adding another quality shooter facing the basket … handles the ball well, and passes well for a big man, has surprising agility for his size and displayed outstanding ability to block shots.

Williams on Randle: "When Ryan came in, nobody was sure exactly just how good he could be for us. He turned out to be, by the end of the year, someone you could put in the game and have no worries. He was very dependable. He played a great deal of time against Kansas when Lonny [Baxter] got into foul trouble. He's played really well against good teams and good players. This is a big year for Ryan. When you come in as a junior college player, you want to make sure you have that senior year that really pays off. I think Ryan has the potential to play after college, so this will be a big year for him to polish his game. He can shoot the ball, he can pass, and put it on the floor a little bit."
