After one Maryland football player said another player punched him at practice on Tuesday while other teammates helped, a bunch of players said that account was untrue.
This was backup punter Matt Barber’s account of his altercation with starting punter Wade Lees in The Baltimore Sun:
Barber, of Mechanicsburg, Pa., said word had gotten around on the team that he is a “whistle-blower” who talked to investigators about problems on the team. When Durkin returned to practice Tuesday to watch the team practice, his supporters on the team felt emboldened and began taunting Barber, he said.
