Maryland football players react to head coach DJ Durkin’s firing

It’s been a whirlwind last two days for Maryland football. Yesterday, the Board of Regents announced it was reinstating DJ Durkin only to have Wallace Loh fire him a day later. The move to reinstate Durkin brought a wide range of reactions, and his firing did as well.

Ellis McKennie and Tre Watson, who both criticized Tuesday’s decision, commended what happened Wednesday evening.

Michael Cornwell hugged Jordan McNair’s dad before he spoke on SportsCenter, then tweeted a picture of his fallen teammate.

Cam Spence, who was a member of McNair’s recruiting class, just wants people to remember the team is playing for their fallen teammate.
