Athletic director Damon Evans recently appeared before a commission investigating the University of Maryland’s football team culture following the death of 19-year-old offensive lineman Jordan McNair, according to multiple sources.
The commission, overseen by the Board of Regents, is tasked with examining allegations of a “toxic culture” on the team. The board is scheduled to briefed Friday on the results of the investigation.
No compatible source was found for this media.
The eight-member commission has not disclosed which players, coaches or administrators it has questioned. Evans was an obvious choice because he has been athletic director since June and helped hire football coach DJ Durkin in a previous capacity in 2015.
