Terps Add Three Standouts During Late Signing Period

COLLEGE PARK, Md. – University of Maryland Head Coach Michael Locksley announced today that three high school standouts have signed national letters of intent to play football for the Terrapins. Defensive back Kevyn Humes, defensive back Shamar McIntosh and defensive lineman Dimitry Nicolas have joined the program during the late signing period, which began on Wednesday. 
 
The trio of new Terps join the 21 student-athletes that inked NLI's during the early signing period in December to make up Maryland's 2024 class, which is currently ranked No. 31 nationally by Rivals.com. 

With the addition of Humes, Maryland's 2024 signing class now has six four-star signees as the Terps also inked OL Ryan Howerton, DB Brandon Jacob, DB Braydon Lee, WR Mekhai White and RB DeJuan Williams in December.
