COLLEGE PARK - Maryland running back Bruce Perry probably won't return for Thursday night's nationally televised game against Georgia Tech. <br>
<br>
Perry has yet to play this season because of a torn groin. Terrapins coach Ralph Friedgen said Tuesday that Perry is doubtful for Thursday, and is unsure of the running back's status for the rest of the season. <br>
<br>
Maryland is considering getting a medical redshirt for Perry, but it's uncertain whether he could receive it if he recovers from his injury before the end of the season. <br>
<br>
Perry was last year's Atlantic Coast Conference player of the year. <br>
<br>
Freshman Josh Allen and senior Chris Downs will likely share the running back duties Thursday against Georgia Tech. Both are averaging more than six yards a carry.
