Also, for jerkin4, it is possible to change your BP handle, it takes an Admin to do it.

Cool thanks, anyone know an admin.

Long story short, I agree Durkin should probably be fired. Ws are not more important than our student athletes. I don't want to give off that vibe.

Court did resign, I believe he was the chosen fall guy, doesn't mean the rest aren't also culpable. I'm sick to my stomach with the turn of events. Who the hell doesn't take a temp reading when someone is exhibiting signs of heat stroke?

Hopefully the Canada era is long, safe and productive.

High-level Maryland donors send letter to board expressing support for DJ Durkin

Maryland kicks off their season on Saturday against Texas and they will do so without head coach DJ Durkin, who remains on administrative leave amid several investigations into his program. While he remains in an uphill battle to keep his job going forward, the coach did receive a big vote of confidence from a few folks who matter quite a bit to every university: the people who write big checks.

As detailed by the Baltimore Sun, it seems several “high-level” donors to the school have sent a letter to the board of regents and several other key administrators expressing their support for Durkin. At least one

“We take great issue with the Maryland football program under Coach Durkin being labeled as any type of ‘toxic environment’,” the letter read in part. “Many of us have had the opportunity to regularly attend numerous football practices, team workouts, team dinners and team events, to travel with the team for away football games and be on the sideline for home football games.

“Others have sponsored and interacted repeatedly with football players that greatly respect DJ Durkin. We have all been witnesses to the exact opposite of a toxic environment. What we have witnessed is the exact opposite of any toxic environment. What we have witnessed is a coach and coaching staff deeply committed to obtaining excellence from every player on the field, in the classroom and in life.”

There’s no timetable set for the investigation being conducted into what has been happening at Maryland but it goes without saying that this is the strongest statement yet in favor of keeping Durkin around College Park.
