Tate's loss hurts, but it's not a death blow. He was always a poor fit for linebacker, and watching him squander his very obvious talents there was cringe-worthy. Mario Rowson, who is more aggressive and physical, has looked good there as a freshman. The loss of his leadership - he was one of four captains, another one being Andrew Gonnella - is the biggest departure. That Maryland has already gone several games without him is good preparation for doing the same the rest of the year.
