Another B1G Head Coach in Hot Water?

[Skerz4Life50]

DJ Durkin at Maryland accused of having toxic environment that indirectly led to player’s death.

And all the big 10 trouble is from one division hmmmm

 

[rrthusker]

Sounds like he should never be a coach.

 

[TheBeav815]

Yikes

 

[timnsun]

Makes Pelini look like Tom Osborne in terms of temperament.

 

[Baxter48]

Urban needs a receivers coach!!

 

[JohnRossEwing]

Watch...he will be gone within 7 days.

 

[The Garvin Lizard]

Durkin came to Maryland from Michigan, where he was the defensive coordinator and linebackers coach. He worked under Jim Harbaugh at Michigan and Stanford and for Ohio State coach Urban Meyer at Bowling Green and Florida.

Unreal that coaches think this type of behavior is acceptable. I'm honestly shocked that one of these players hasn't lost it and completely beat the crap out of one of these coaches. Or worse yet, brought a gun and shoot them.

 

[MikeRileyGBR]

So we had a pedophile and child rapist at Penn St, rampant and horrid sexual abuse at Mich St, abuse at Ohio st, domestic violence at Ohio St, player abuse at Indiana, and player abuse/mistreatment and a player dying at Maryland. And then there’s Rutgers.

Welcome to the B1G.

 

[JohnRossEwing]

By the way...this is EXACTLY what Urban was hoping for.

Multiple sources said that after McNair finished his 10th sprint while two other players held him up, Robinson yelled, "Drag his ass across the field!"

Then the kid died.

I can't even imagine what his parents are going through. If this happened to my daughter I don't even know if I'd have the strength to stay away from prison.

I'd own that university if that happened to my kid.

I wouldn't get the chance, I only have one child so I'm not sure if I'd care what happens if she's gone, I try living for God, but that would be a test I'm not sure I'd pass well

 

[RedMyMind]

That program is so F'D

 

[RedCap]

Durkin will be fired for cause. Public pressure these days will be too intense for him to keep his job - particularly on the East coast. And, his recruiting credibility has just been flushed down the toilet. What parents want to send their kids to play for an abuser? Best to cut ties quickly and move on.

 

[huskerfan1414]

. And then there’s Rutgers.

Welcome to the B1G.

BTN is visiting schools at just the wrong moment it seems.

I think they are at Nebraska on the 20th. Can we just not let them in the state?

Urban needs a receivers coach!!

too soon

It would take a lot of restraint. A lot.

Looks like another black eye for the B1G. So glad our staff's culture is not to swear at players.

I found this interesting, reminded me of Gunny Sgt Hartman making private Pyle eat the donut.

"The belittling, humiliation and embarrassment of players is common. In one example, a player whom coaches wanted to lose weight was forced to eat candy bars as he was made to watch teammates working out."

[SC_'sker]

Yeah that guy and his strength coach seem like a-holes for sure. Surprising that they have recruited decently with this HC. Don't the players warn the recruits?

Looks like there will be at least one B1G team looking for a new coach before the season starts for sure.

You'll never guess who DJ Durkin is a disciple of...

The irony, for sure

 

[RedMyMind]

coaches from Youngstown should be required to pass a psych test before going into coaching

 

[SkulzNBonz]

We came to this conference to not only get away from the Texass conference, but to put ourselves in a better situation both academically and financially and ended up joining the Scandal Conference. The defunct SWC was known as the probation conference and looks like The BIG is now known as the Scandal Conference!

 

[bmguy88]

Durkin is now on administrative leave as well.

 

[TheNewNU]

Durkin like his mentor, Urban Meyer, has also been placed on administrative leave.

[Husker4real]

Why is this a black eye for the B1G?

Does anyone think less of Northwestern, Nebraska, Minnesota, etc., because of what is going on a Maryland?

I was going to include Iowa in the list but people in general think less of Iowa.

Minnesota had their issues which cost their previous coach a job as well.

 

[HuskerIsNumberOne]

The irony, for sure

He'd be a perfect candidate for the Maryland job.

That's where my mind went immediately too. But then I've seen FMJ roughly 78,000 times.

 

[HuskerJag]

Durkin like his mentor, Urban Meyer, has also been placed on administrative leave.

One of these 2 has multiple national championships....the other is likely out of a job.

 

[HuskerLLM]

Urban?

Durkin I'd a Urban "disciple"

The only Bo connection I'd Youngstown, DJ has been an Urbs guy for a long time.

Players and coaches seem to be happily holding hands and skipping down the road to ruining the sport of football.
