A Maryland booster reportedly didn’t travel with the team after player ‘outrage’ over his comments on Jordan McNair

The Maryland booster who made comments about Jordan McNair in a Diamondback story last week was removed from the itinerary for the Terps’ charter flight to Michigan over the weekend, ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg reports.

Rick Jaklitsch was one of many boosters scheduled to make the flight. Rittenberg reports:

But when players saw his name on the passenger manifest, they became outraged, sources said, and told athletics staffers, including Cheryl Harrison, Maryland’s senior associate athletic director and chief development officer. Jaklitsch was informed he wouldn’t be traveling with other boosters and the team.
