Competing for the starting tailback spot, Maryland running back Justus Pickett ran 18 times for 74 yards in the Terps' spring contest Saturday.

He outgained Brandon Ross (14 carries, 46 yards,) but neither averaged over four yards. Wes Brown's arrival figures to further muddy this backfield, making it one to avoid. A true committee seems very probable.
