Maryland accepts responsibility for player death, keeps DJ Durkin on leave during new investigation
Maryland president Wallace Loh and athletic director Damon Evans took responsibility for the June death of offensive lineman Jordan McNair, 19, during a press conference held Tuesday in College Park, Maryland. However, the university has not yet made a decision regarding the status of football coach DJ Durkin, who will remain on administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation into the program.
Loh said that he met with McNair's parents "to express, on behalf of the university, our apology for the loss of their son. I said to them, and I said I would mention it publicly this afternoon -- but I wanted them to hear it directly from me this morning -- the university accepts legal and moral responsibility for the mistakes that our training staff made on that fateful workout day of May the 29th, which of course led subsequently to his death on June 13th.
