In a tearful two-hour meeting Thursday night, University of Maryland football head coach DJ Durkin and acting athletic director Damon Evans reassured parents of Terps football players that the program had followed protocols the day Jordan McNair was hospitalized.
McNair, 19, died June 13, two weeks after the Randallstown resident collapsed during an organized team workout in College Park. The circumstances of the offseason workout have come under scrutiny from the university, which has hired a sports medicine consultant to review the death of the former McDonogh High School offensive lineman. A cause of death has not been disclosed.
