Ncaa To Hear Appeal

Compiled From Wire Services

Maryland should know by tonight how long - or if at all - it will have Scott Milanovich this fall.

Milanovich, the most prolific passer in Terps football history, will have his appeal of an eight-game gambling suspension heard by the NCAA eligibility committee this afternoon. He then must decide if the final penalty is lenient enough to keep him at Maryland or severe enough to send him to the National Football League.

If the suspension is not significantly reduced, Milanovich probably would apply for the NFL supplemental draft, which is tentatively scheduled for Friday. Gary Milanovich, father of the quarterback, said his son tentatively has scheduled a workout for NFL teams Wednesday afternoon.
