Class of 2016 four-star quarterback Dwayne Haskins, out of the Bullis School in Potomac, Maryland, near Washington DC, claimed that he is fully committed to Maryland despite the fact that he was considering a visit to the University of Florida at one point.
Speaking to Ahmed Ghafir of 247 Sports, Haskins confirmed that he is still “110 percent” committed to the Terps.
“I didn’t say I’d take an official or anything, I said I had thought about taking a visit to Florida,” Haskins said. “I probably won’t because I know how Edsall feels about his commitments taking other visits.”

“I’m set on Maryland, I’m definitely 110 percent committed, there’s no question about that,” Haskins said. “[Terps commit Jeffery] Pooler texted me that he’ll be at Maryland this week, he gets in on Thursday but I have camp, so I’ll head up on Friday and see him. That’s the only visit I have on my mind.”
On top of that, Haskins took to Twitter to reiterate just how much he is looking forward to suiting up in College Park next season.

On top of Florida, Haskins has also drawn interest from a number of schools including Auburn, Alabama, Penn State, Mississippi State, Michigan, Ohio State and Notre Dame, among many others. Given how the Terps will likely need some help under center once Caleb Rowe graduates after this season, having Haskins officially sign a letter of intent should draw sighs of relief from the fans.
Maryland opens 2015 at home against the CAA’s Richmond Spiders on September 5.
