Report: Commission Finds Maryland Football Had Several Failures, but Not a 'Toxic Culture'

The Maryland board of regents reportedly found several failures within the university's football program but deemed it was not a "toxic culture," according to The Washington Post.

The commission reportedly concluded its eight-week external report and found that "the Athletics Department lacked a culture of accountability, did not provide adequate oversight of the football program." It also reportedly said that the department "failed to provide Mr. Durkin with the tools, resources, and guidance necessary to support and educate a first-time head coach in a major football conference." According to the Post, the report did not provide any recommendations on personnel decisions regarding the future of Durkin or other employees.
