Last week, Vikings Sports Now speculated that it was only a matter of time before Big 10 programs began to get involved in the recruitment of James Armstrong and today it happened.
This afternoon that happened as coaches from Maryland reached out to the Hopewell HS football department to let them know that they were extending an offer to Armstrong.
With this news, Maryland becomes the second Big 10 school to offer this 2028 4-star talent.
