The former WWE World Champion rose to fame in 2011 when he delivered a stirring speech — which he called a pipebomb — where he openly criticized the WWE and its owners, particularly Vince McMahon. Although that monologue was part of a storyline, his real-life dissatisfaction with the WWE led to him walking out on his contract in January and his retirement from pro wrestling. The real-life feud between Punk and the WWE boiled over again last week when he revealed in a lengthy podcast interview that the company had sent him his severance papers on his wedding day. He also alleged that the WWE neglected to properly treat a staph infection on his back and other lingering injuries including a concussion. I felt like it was now or never, said the 36-year-old Punk.

While the team could certainly use his 16.2 ppg, others have stepped up and filled the void. Freshman Melo Trimble is definitely one of those guys, as the youngster is second on the team with a solid 15.8 ppg. Jake Layman is the other, as the junior pours in 15.4 ppg. Maryland shot a modest .400 from the floor against USC Upstate, but held the visitors to just a .373 effort in the 10-point win.

Layman led the way with 17 points, Trimble recorded his first double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds, while Evan Smotrycz finished with 19 points in just 18 minutes of work.

Offensively, the team is driven by the dynamic scoring duo of senior forward LeBryan Nash and junior guard Phil Forte III. Nash leads the team with 17.7 ppg, with Forte hot on his trail at 17.1 ppg.
