Previous season[edit]
The Terrapins finished the 2017 season 4–8, 2–7 in Big Ten play to finish in a tie for sixth place in the East Division.
Player death and culture controversy[edit]
On May 29, Jordan McNair, a 19-year-old offensive lineman for Maryland, collapsed during a strenuous practice. He was hospitalized after visibly showing signs of extreme exhaustion with a body temperature of 106 °F (41 °C) recorded upon arrival.[2] He was later airlifted to the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center to receive an emergency liver transplant,[3] where he died on June 13.[4] Though no cause of death was initially listed for McNair,[5] findings published by ESPN in August show that he likely died of a heat stroke, with teammates and medical staff noticing an apparent seizure one hour before a 911 call was placed. This corroborated a statement made by his parents a month earlier.[6]
An investigation started immediately after his death showed that McNair first showed signs of heat illness at 4:59 PM[7]:27–29 but did not arrive at the hospital for treatment until 6:36 PM[7]:32 and that trainers failed to recognize the signs of heat illness, nor did they take aggressive measures to cool him.[7]:18 A second investigation, into the culture of the Maryland football program, was started after ESPN published an investigative article in August 2018. Multiple staffers were suspended[8] and the strength and conditioning coach named as the main abuser in the ESPN report, Rick Court, resigned almost immediately after being suspended.[9] Head coach D.J. Durkin was also suspended and Matt Canada was named interim coach;[10] after the second investigation concluded that Maryland football did not have, by definition, a toxic culture, Durkin was reinstated on October 30,[11] only to be fired the next day by University President Wallace Loh.[12]

After a tumultuous offseason, Maryland emerged victorious against Texas 34-29 after shaking off a 30+ minute thunder delay. In Matt Canada's debut as interim head coach, Maryland forced three turnovers in the final 6:09 of the game after losing a 24-7 lead. Freshman Jeshaun Jones, in his first career game, completed the trifecta by passing for a touchdown, receiving a touchdown, and rushing for a touchdown. Most notably, the Terrapins paid tribute to the late Jordan McNair by lining up with 10 players on their first offensive play. Maryland waited for a delay of game penalty and Texas declined the penalty in a show of good sportsmanship. [20]
